Everything else after this one,is just a picture within a picture.This really covers it all!
A very pretty picture here.Did you shoot this yourself?

Nothing much more complex than this subject!!

Very nice shot. Do you have one of those rigs that tracks the stars?? I have tried some of this but not with much luck....

AbsolutelyN said 431 days ago:

Thanks. Yes I took this myself, it is the North American Nebular. Taken from the top of Pennyghent (UK mountain). I stupidly hauled a rather heavy equatorial mounting to the top which allows you to track the stars for a long exposure and camped at the top. I think this was about 5 mins with a 200mm f/2.8 lens.

Beautiful color and comp!

Yes that is complex!

joecow said 431 days ago:

I would say the solar system fits complexity.

Most complex; high marks.

Wow, I'd like to know a little bit about how this photo was taken.

gembase said 431 days ago:

WOW! amazing picture! 5* for me.

phototext said 431 days ago:

I know I've already commented but I am very impressed with this image. Visually and photographically it's top notch but it also shouts complexity from the top of a mountain (Pennyghent, to be precise) very loudly.

Very nice work.

What could be more complex? Wonderful capture.

Nanate said 430 days ago:

Awesome shot. I really want to get me another mount and try this kind of stuff again. All I ever had was an Orion SVP with dual drives. Didn't get to do much with it though. This is very inspiring. Wonderful job.

I'm not sure about this image, there is way too much noise.

Hang on a second...

This really is a great shot. Perhaps it has all the more impact on this site because it is such a rarely submitted subject but encapsulates our insignificance so well.
