magical night

hey everyone, long time no see! I've been so busy lately I haven't had much time for foruming, but I've been missing the company of so many great photographers and thought I'd drop by and share.
C&C always appreciate.

I think this is a stunning photo. Very impressive technically and also comunicative and rich of atmosphere. I'd like to know something more about the realization if you like to share

Hey ste77, are you looking for some camera info? I'd be happy to share.

This was shot with a D700 (just upgraded to the D800, so excited!)
it is a blend of exposures, 30 seconds for the sky (i didn't want any movement in the sky)
and about 2 minutes for the foreground. (I took a high iso fast shutter speed of the water because I wanted it to match the sharpness of the stars)

Thank you so much for the data shared. I was mainly curious to know if it was a double exposure. Fantastic job and I also like your photos on flickr stream

Very good.
I still want to do my milk-way photo as well.
