 In a pine grove at night fall it seems as if even the trees are declaring god's glory and reaching for him!

This idea comes from a recent Popular Photography article where a photographer shot skyward in a pine grove using bracketing and HDR. My idea was to do it without doing HDR, but doing it at near night light and painting nearby trees with a flashlight. It took nearly a minute of exposure and fast work with a flashlight to get this!

Nice perspective. Would like to see more detail. Perhaps a smaller aperture would help that?
