Fantastic, Craig! You nailed the light painting, which plays off the complementary color the sky just perfectly. I have a strong preference for #1, but all are great.

This is superb. Wish we had something like this around here. The second one with the deep blue sky is the best one.

A great set of images you have here, Craig. I really like #1 since the Milky Way takes up a large part of the image.

Typically I don't care much for night shots, but these are special and very well done. You also picked a great location with great compositions.

Incredible shots, I just have never seen anything like this before. The title is perfect for this set. Though I could easily appreciate a shot of only sky, the warmth of the 'highways' is inviting and really sets the sky off nicely.
Rather masterful exposure work here and a fine presentation to enjoy, thank you

Guys & Gals - Thank you!!!

I got lucky that night! I was scrambling on a pretty steep slick rock to try and capture the Milky Way properly. Every time I would set up, then it would move just a little. So I was constantly moving. Also, I attribute the nice stars to pre testing my ideal focus during the day with that lens. I did several test shots using contrast detect AF and so I knew what the absolute perfect and sharpest focus was, and where the infinity symbol should be when I reverted to manual focus that night. So it was one less thing to think about. It's funny though, I got there in the absolute dark time, but then I could sense it when it was just starting to lighten up before the sliver of a moon started coming up. So by 3:45 am or so the sky had completely changed and the stars were fading...

Thanks again!!

Really great. What did you light the double arch with? When I did with my headlamp last year it was very bland and low contrast. Your photo really has a lot of great color in the arch! Nice.
