It looks like a screen saver that I formerly had.

One of the coolest photos that I've ever seen! It remind me some scenes of "Stargate" :cool:

Nice stairtrail disgusting foreground. It's like the sunset photo's you see of a wild sky but no thought at all in the foreground of the photo.

Very cool photo and yes the foreground stinks. It looks to be about a seven hour shot. That would be normal for this type of shot. Is this a lot of short time shots put together in photoshop? Look at the star trails, they are choppy. I whould like to know how they did this.
