Taken at Yaquina Head around midnight. The good thing about this light is it is fixed (ie. it does not rotate). This shot is a composite of 4 stacked shots of 15 seconds a piece at ISO 1600. It has no noise reduction (other than making it small which reduces noise in itself). I'm starting to not like the look of NI on night shots which tends to leave very low frequency noise which looks ugly. The over/under on comments about it being "noisy" is at 3.

Well done indeed, I imagine a lot of work went into to making this photo perfect technically, i don't mind the noise at all and really like the shot, 'grats on top 10
