Very nice and well done! Must have been quite a calculation of the shuttertime!

My D850 digital camera shot it at ISO 400, f/11, and 6 minutes. Reciprocity table says at least 4 times of normal exposure time. We exposed the first sheet at 30 minutes just to be safe. But then I guess it is not long enough. So the second sheet was exposed at 60 minutes. And the result is quite nice.

When we arrived at the Tunnel View, it was already long past sunset. We could barely see the shape of the mountains from the ground glass. Thankfully, it was near full moon. So we focused on the moon, and recomposed to take this photo. Not sure if we are the first one to shoot Tunnel View in the evening with a large format camera?

Fabulous shot.

The star trails are pretty cool too.

Gregg that photo gives me the chills - a distant, wrecked metropolis...nestled in its own postapocolyptic haze.
