 Thanks guys.

This has been a last minute entry, even if all the images used had been taken a few days before but without a precise idea of the final result.

I took the stars shot during the coverage of a live music show. As soon as I turned off the camera I noticed how starry was the night. We were working in a wonderful ancient cathedral without the ceiling.

I had taken the mountain shots on Sunday, but their shape was completely different. I chose the shape and used the mountain photos as a texture.

Surely not a perfect image but considering how fast I created it I can't complain :)

Thanks for votes and comments.

I really love this, Alessandro. A very whimsical nightscape, with a touch of Van Gogh. Congrats on the HM
