A crypto project which sets stakes of its users to zero has nothing to do with the basic ideas of blockchains and cryptocurrencies.
It's a shame to run down such a project and let it go to waste in that way.
As funds on STEEM aren't safe anymore, I moved all over to HIVE.

Great photo Kevin, don't know how I missed this post? It's a brilliant capture. Well done. 
What was your exposure time?

I'm still processing my shoot from two days ago. Time is fleeting.

That building at the bottom left of the photo is at a jaunty angle? :-)

Thank you very much @molometer. No problem, I also miss sometimes thing. The numbers of posts are very high so that you overlook something. :-)
The exposure time was 25 seconds and the ISO was at 1600.

The building is not the leaning tower of Pisa :-D 
The Tokina has a big problem with distortion at 11mm. The closer to the edge the more pronounced. Once an object is not targeted at the correct angle, geometry is over. You can already see it from the higher trees in the middle, they already bend a bit.
That was the reason why I sold the lens in the end. At the moment I'm still looking for a replacement.

Image processing is a very time-consuming thing. I'm already curious about your pictures :-)

Still a great photograph Kevin. I suppose you could always crop the edges but to be honest. I like the Pisa in the corner lol

Wonderful photo! A bit too much of light where you took it, is that a large city over there? I'm an astronomy teacher and always take my kids to places  with as little artificial light as possible and around astronomical night-time. The Perseids might not be in full power then, but it's worth seeing and photographing if one can!
**FYI**
Complete darkness or astronomical night is the period between astronomical dusk and astronomical dawn when the Sun is between 18 and 90 degrees below the horizon and does not illuminate the sky. As seen from latitudes between 48.5° and 66.5° north or south of the Equator, complete darkness does not occur around the summer solstice because although the Sun sets, it is never more than 18° below the horizon at lower culmination.

Thank you very much for your kind words @astrodreamteam
The image was captured somewhere around 5 o'clock in the morning. The light is the rising sun. 
In summer it is unfortunately impossible to have a really dark night where I live. But fortunately, it will be now darker from week to week.
Normally I take Deep Sky pictures, as you can see on my other astroimages, so this was a (I simply call it) "taster" :-) But I think that I will do more something like this in the future when I have found an lens that fits my needs.
