Quick conversion (or not) but I like it. Nothing bad to say!

I like it too. I guess that if it were possible I'd burn the brightest spots on the roadway a bit and see if I could bring out a little more detail there. Good backlight always is difficult.

Its relative I spose, probably about 20 mins but I often find myself spending far longer than that.

This is a great shot and I'm pretty sure that your first flush doesn't use the full potential of it. By the way: This picture could be used by Stanley Kubrick for his 2001 movie. It seems that you've captured two suns.  8)

I agree.

I think you might find that it was the dreadful 'sequel' 2010 that featured the twin suns.
