Mangaweka Deviation.
Finally had a chance to stop here after passing it so many times and thinking 'Meh I'll stop next time', so this time I did.
The plan was to shoot Astro here, but as always the Weather deviated from what I was wanting, and was just cloud with faint glimpses of stars. So, feeling dirty, I decided to drop a Milky Way in. The direction and layout of the Milky Way is just a little off, but getting the shot for real would nearly be possible if you had the right time of year.
However the challenge with this spot is the traffic! Trucks and cars with full beams on, provides a very challenging spot. It was hard deciding on one with or without light trails from the train, I think this one works without it
Anyway, I hope you guys like this mashup
