Cycling Startrails
The August Bank Holiday weekend was spent cycling at Rutland Water, Leicestershire, with little light pollution I decided to do some startrails, going down the the waters edge to use this for a bit of interest was out of the question, I had not long arrived, it had been a long day, and was getting late, so I opted to use the car instead. I hadn't took the bikes off the roof and knew these silhouetted against the sky would look good, this was the best angle I could find. The image is made up of 112 30 sec exposures.
The small streak on the right is a shooting star and the longer one a passing plane, the car is ambient lit and I used a 1/4 power flashgun pop to give the inside of the car a bit of a glow.
Strobist info: single 420EX @ 1/4 power inside car
