This shot caught my eye just from the thumbnail. I really like it and gave it one of few 10s. After reading other's coments, I must agree that the tree branches are a little too busy and the trunk a little too prominent. However the star trails are fabulous and the time shown on the clocks (good choice - 3) is creative and striking - for those who really understand what they are looking at. They add movement to such a still art-form.
You have so few shots on your portfolio, but all are creative and great. You obviously enjoy shooting long exposure shots. I am envious of your Canon SLR :) Hope to see more of your work soon!

Shame the speeding hands on the clocks didn't come out a little darker - at first they weren't easy to spot. Clever idea - and an interesting take on the challenge. I also found the star? flashes in the background distracting from the main focus.

Nice idea, the clocks add a lot to this extremely long exposure. I don't like the composition very much: I would like to see more of the sky, and the tree on either the left or the right side of the picture. 7.

very cool, I like the clocks showing how long the exposure was, nice touch!

Are those clocks showing a 7 minute exposure?

Brillant idea! And very well executed, the exposure is spot on even with the very long shutter speed.

Cool photo. I liked the clodk idea and the stars shooting in the background show a definite passing of time.

Love the clocks, love the exposure time, not crazy about the trees. And, its not that I'm not crazy about trees being in this shot, I'm just not crazy about the way it is set up here in particular.

Nice star trails! How long was the exposure? Original and interesting. Only thing I would change is maybe the lighting on the clocks, mostly the bottom clock, since it feels like artificial light there, while the rest of the scene feels natural.

Nice idea, not terribly keen on the composition though. Branch silhouettes can look very messy unless you compose them just right.

About a 7 minute exposure based on the clocks? Nice star trails.

An interesting basic concept, probably the best of the time-lapse shots I've seen so far.

wow...meteor shower...

i'd have given this one point higher if there were no clocks, or no meteors....but both are confusing. which one do i focus on, ewhich one is the theme?
