Scarp ICM

I've never really tried ICM before, but I was inspired by visiting the Hebscape photo gallery for morning coffee and seeing some really nice examples. That afternoon I was taking a few long exposures with my 10 stop filter and decided to take a frame while moving the camera. I wasn't really thinking about settings and the single shot I took was completely black. I'm not very patient so I didn't bother taking any further shots and moved onto something else. Back home a few weeks later I was reviewing images to see the black frame, for fun I decided to push it 5 stops in Lightroom and to my surprise this photo popped out. A bit of horizon straightening and some noise reduction and voila.
