Ah so that's how you got the stars and lamp so well at the same time (response below). A successful and very timely response. Very nice high ISO response.

Just hurried over to take opportunity when I saw the light dimming out. Used the night mode again, so maybe that can be considered a type of hdr?

Fantastically balanced exposure, I guess the HDR at work.

Yea great shadow play.

Wonderful mishmash of shadows.

Obliging birdie to let you get the interesting composition.

Has an African bushland feel, nicely detailed by the GR.

Hard to choose between this and next door. Absolutely enchanting appearance.

splendid moon, sky and cloud rendering.
