StarTrails

This was my first shot at startrails. I wasn't sure about placing it in my stream.

A few lessons learned. Don't just grab your stuff and go out just because it is one of those rare moonless, cloudless nights.

Make sure your equipment is fully charged!

I didn't think the light pollution would be as bad as it was.

Also a good idea is to practice first. I got caught out trying to setup EOS Utility on the laptop.

 

Around 70 exposures @ 25 secs compiled in StarStax.

 

Sometimes there are curves.

Sometimes there are straight lines.

Life is like that.

Make the most of what you have.

 

Have a merry Christmas Folks.
