The Milky Way
My first Milky Way capture on a wild and windy night along a deserted farm road on the outskirts of Christchurch ( you could see the glow from the city)
The wind was so strong ...and at some stage I fear that my tripod would blow over!!
I did approx. 8 seconds of light painting on the tree with my tiny torch.
Due to the vibration from the wind...the trees are not in sharp focus...nevertheless I am happy with the result.
I just read up that there is 200 billion stars in the Milky Way and it is around 100,000 light years across!
Many thanks for your visits, kind comments and favs...I really appreciate it..
Our Universe is simply awesome....Happy Weekend everyone!
