Default The Hand of God
I took this in mid April over 4 nights before we moved house. A
beautiful but seldom imaged area, with long enough exposure it is quite
a spectacular region really.

The following is a link to a 1400 X 900 image so that it will fit on
most screens without the need for scrolling but please access the
larger file and a close-up version via the links below the image (don't
click on the image).

Hope you enjoy it

Mike
