This is the post mill at Mountnessing in Essex.  I wanted stars AND the mill in moonlight.  The moon was bright....the stars were out.   f/4.5, 6s, iso 1600

Good picture Peter. Difficult to get the night balance right when just using moonlight to illuminate the scene. Hope you don't mind me hijacking your thread; here's one I have tried using just the moon as light. ( THe compression has banded the skye - the original has a pleasing gradient ).

I've modified the picture for the web as it was uploading far too dense.

thanks guys, no problem posting into my post.......amazing how much detail you can get at night. I couldn't see banding on my moitor at all, lovely shot.
