Took a couple of moonlit landscapes of Glasshouse Mountains while waiting for sunrise this morning. Taken from Wild Horse Mountain about 40 minutes before sunrise:D

Jaw-droppingly beautiful! I'd say I wish I was there, except you said something about 'before sunrise'?
Have it printed and put a massive metallic frame around it: that way if anybody mentions the 'rule of thirds' you'll have something heavy to beat them around the head with.

Wow, that is amazing!
#2 seems like you've got star trails shooting up the sun

Thanks Folks
I sorta miscalculated the sunrise and found myself up the top of the mountain an hour early so I had to find something to do
The moon really blew out in the 2nd shot but the star rails make it I thought.
As for the rule of thirds, out the window for these

Like these ones slider. A little bit of curves treatment for the sky could add a bit more punch. I had a quick play with the first:
Hope you don't mind.

Absolutely stunning!
How long was the exposure for each of these?

M T, don't mind at all. The deeper blue looks good.
ATJ, the first was HDR Merge of 5 varying exposures, the second was around 4 minutes at f/5.6

Mark, these are great images, especially the first one...being early certainly paid off.
And the rule of thirds - what the hell is that?

I agree - not your everyday landscape pic, and for this you can be congratulated.
I also agree that a touch more saturation improves an already good image.

#1 for me Mark. It really captures that early morning crispness.

Hi Mark,
These are very haunting images and very moody. You certainly know how to create a stunning landscape
I'm sure there will be plenty of punters who will be glad to learn how to get such great shots on our up-and-coming Trekabout Photography Workshops
Cheers
