Description PLS check FULL screen to see the details

An evening i saw this blue sky with very white looking clouds (very unlikely in Indian Moonsoon).
One of which looked like a white bird..
So i photographed it against this dead tree. As i wanted to use it as a symbol of Calamity & the white DOVE as symbol of peace.. I hope i m able to show that peace is always prevailing...
This is not meant to b a landscape only shot...
Amazingly i was also able to get stars on a blue sky with a long exposure of 8 sec.

Beautiful photo! I like the shape and color of the clouds and the strange silhouette of the tree, but most of all I'm surprised you managed to capture the stars! I never did that... Can you tell me what setting you used for that?

Let me mention this was not an ordianry day sunset. The sky choose to b a bright blue inspite of the sun setting. Also the clouds were unbeiveably white that late. so the stars were visible..
I had to shoot about 3-4 shots to get the stars right. As a longer exposure than 8 seconds made the stars leave a trial. Also this image has been corrected for noise in NEAT images. The ISO is about 400. Hope that help else do not hesitate to ask more doubts.
