Evening Twilight over the City of Rocks

The waxing crescent Moon with Earthshine, in the deep twilight sky, May 2, 2014, with Orion and the winter stars setting, with Jupiter in Gemini at top, all setting over the City of Rocks State Park, south of Silver City, New Mexico.

This is a high dynamic range HDR stack of 7 exposures at 2/3rds stop intervals from 1 second to 13 seconds, with the 14mm Rokinon lens at f/2.8 and Canon 5D MkII at ISO 800. Taken at the end of an evening of sunset and twilight shooting. Stacked in Photoshop CC HDR Pro then tone-mapped in Adobe Camera Raw 32 bit mode.
