Geoff, Sometimes the only way to get the shot we feel is right is to do a
composite.  Nice work!  Gee, "only" 4200 feet? <gr>

 ... of a different sort. This one was done photo-mechanically to begin
with.
Exposure info is on the display page... which can be viewed here --------->

 The light pollution gradient on the lower-left quadrant... which was
digitally
minimized... is the city of Atlanta, GA... some two hours fast drivin' and
well
below the elevation of 4200'+ which the images were shot from. Can't seem to
get away from it no matter what we do! Looking at the top and left of this
image gives one an accurate assessment of what the skies straight over-head
are
capable of... when the wind recedes enough to allow you to shoot!
Whatever...
it's the best place I've found in Georgia... but that dang wind...

 Best...
