Neowise at Knowlton
As the Comet Neowise speeds through the solar system a few of us went to Knowlton Church and Henge in Dorset on the 16th of July. As one of my favourite dawn shoots I was amazed at the number of people who were there last night.
We arrived early and all got parked as there are only a few spaces. At first we thought it was too hazy but at 11pm it started to be visible to the naked eye. I shot with two lenses and tried various ISO and speed combinations, this is an 18 sec at 24mm at 1250iso so there is some movement in the stars but I liked this shot the best of all, in the UK look to the NW and hopefully you will see this visitor as it will not be back for 6,000 years!
The green/yellow lights round the henge were fireflies in the grass.
