wildmoor pool
I have been trying to catch this image of the winter constellations at Wildmoor pool for a while. Initially conditions seemed good however, Sahara dust haze was still in the atmosphere. Wind seemed calm, but to my disappointment not calm enough as ripples were in the pool from the tiny breeze ruining star reflections, especially with a 20 second shutter speed. It's fair to say that I'm not 100% satisfied with the image, but will try again if conditions are right...clear skies.
