    Wow. Just from the thumbnail, I wasn't terribly impressed, but after reading the tutorial and really looking at your dark areas, I'm impressed with this technique. I love how the more distant mountain is almost solid blue. Most people would either get that completely black or mostly black with annoying posterization. The wave line is kind of annoying, but I realize there is really nothing to be done about that, short of cloning it out. Judging from the lights on the hill, it looks like you got a little bit of camera shake - probably when you pushed the button. I don't know much about the XTi, but my Canon A530 has a custom timer setting that comes in very handy in lowlight-tripod situations, because I can set it to start 2 seconds after I release the shutter button, which gives me time to get my hand off the camera and step away. Might be something to think about in the future.

    Thanks for your comments. The blue line is blurred waves on the water, as this was a 25" exposure. It's startling how it runs evenly across the frame from left to right, but it was present in every exposure I took of scene. On this "shoot" (feels pretentious to use that word) I was practicing the "Expose Right" technique I read about at Luminous Landscape -- http://www.luminous-landscape.com/tutorials/expose-right.shtml I was delighted with how much light my Rebel XTi gathered, as to my eye the scene was much more dark than this. Careful histogram review and adjustments in Lightroom helped to perfect the colors and bring out details hidden in the shadows; the initial view in the LCD review screen looked nothing like the final result! It's been so much fun learning to shoot pictures that satisfy me.
