Danzig Dam Star Trail

This photo was actually made from stacking my time lapse series of 407 photos. I used a light panel at its lowest setting to add just a touch of light to the dock. The red lights are from wind turbines that are part of a large wind farm. I was hoping to get a time lapse of the aurora, but there was too much light pollution. However, the time lapse still turned out pretty nice.

 

I would like to thank everyone for your support, views, faves and comments !

 

Have a good week !

Some have been asking about the technical details. Total time was about 2.5 hours using 20 second exposures with a 2 second interval at ISO 6400. 407 photos filled my 32 GB card. I was using my Nikon D810 with the 14 to 24 f2.8 lens set at 14mm. I used Starstax to produce this star trail photo.
