I like the way you've composed the shot to include Orion's reflection in the water. And the lighting on the mountains is wonderful. Is the purplish hue to the stars intentional? For my taste, I would have processed for the stars to be whiter.
I assume the light on the mountains is from Canmore, right? The images is great. Nice and clean. The only thing I'd remove is the magenta/violet color around the stars.
All larger stars on this shot have it (probably smaller ones too but hard to see here). I'd just reduce it or brighten just that color so it becomes white.

Thank you. The purple hue is the "Rokinon wife open" effect I am afraid acnomad wrote:

Thanks Gregg. Yes the light is from street lights on 1A. The rokinon 24 has huge purple fringing wide open at 1.4 which this was shot with. i've updated the image, have a look. This is a good as it gets (purple/magenta to zero) Gregg B. wrote:

I used to use the Rokinon 12mm on my mirrorless. I was usually able to knock down the purple in Lightroom with a few clicks, although I rarely shot it wide open.
I like the image better now that you tweaked the fringing.
Its a good and bad thing. It gives the stars more color than any other lens but the purple comes out. Picked up the 24gm today so that should be better.

Looks great! In an age of extremes, I love the restraint shown here. Beautiful!
I’m appreciating the warm color tonalties in this night image. Better to my eye vs all the royal/yellow blue night imagery that seems so popular these days.
