Pitstone Windmill is a Grade II listed windmill in England which is thought to date from the early 17th century. It stands in the north-east corner of a large field near the parish boundary of Ivinghoe and Pitstone in Buckinghamshire, and belongs today to the National Trust.
My first attempt at startrail photography: 120 images at ISO 400, 28mm @ F2.8 and stacked using StarSTaX (www.starstax.net) - Version 0.7.
Try #2 for the meteor shower. Few more this time but way too many planes and clouds. Haven't seen a cloud in weeks.
Forecast plans for storms so enjoy the stars while you can.

A beautifully clear evening in Lutsen, Minnesota. After a late night of fun it was around 3:30 a.m. when we realized how clear the sky was. Dan and I went outside and set up four cameras to capture star trails, then went inside and hit the hay. We woke up in the morning and grabbed our cameras. Love how the cameras can take the insane cold with no problem. It was about 13 degrees F when we were setting these up.
Here's something a little different for you all. (300) 30 second exposures stacked in photoshop using the comet like effect, except I tapered off both ends of the trail for a very different look.
It was a crisp -8°F when I set up this star trail time-lapse about 10 feet away from the roaring waves of Lake Superior. The stars were brighter than I've ever seen them and the night air felt refreshing. It was a beautiful night. I felt truly in my element. Alone and at peace in nature with my camera, capturing the gorgeous scene around me.
The bright yellow lights at the bottom left are coming from the steel factories in Silver Bay. Which was a few miles south of where I was shooting from in Lutsen, Minnesota.
This image is a composite of 441 shots stacked using StarStax. Each image was a 13-second exposure taken at f/4 and ISO 8000. I used a Nikon D750 with a 24-120mm lens at 24mm.
There were clear skies at sunset so I knew I had to take advantage of the good weather and shoot some star trails. I had been planning to shoot at a cell phone tower near my house so it was a nice easy subject. I packed my gear and headed out into the warm, summer night. It was beautiful and I was the only person outdoors despite it being a pretty active part of town.
There was a nice breeze and not a cloud in the sky. I found my location which was right beneath a little forest area and completely out of view from nearby roads. It was perfect for a night lapse. The lights of the business nearby lit the trees orangish-yellow and the nearby LED billboard lit the top of the tower bright white. I set my camera up and let it roll for almost an hour before I stopped it as I needed to get back home and ready for bed. 🔦

There's no better feeling than when your camera is aimed to the sky, clicking away capturing a beautiful starry night. 🌌 This is a stack of 150 30-second exposures shot over Long Lake in Birchwood, Wisconsin about a month ago. We set up our cameras then walked back to the bar for a few hours and let the cameras do the work. 🔦
🕑2 hours + the beach🌊
the beach is a beautiful experience during the day, but it can be even more majestic at night – in the dark. mixing my love of light painting with my love of star trails this capture represents a two hour stretch of activity on Panama City Beach in Florida. – enjoy.

284/366: Star Trails and the Milky Way
Returned home yesterday from an amazing 10 day road trip. Most of the trip was spent in Pagosa Springs Colorado and the surrounding area. I had a goal of capturing star trails and the Milky Way on this trip and I was surprised when I was able to capture both in the same shot. This was my second attempt at shooting star trails and I’m extremely pleased with how it turned out.
This is a composite of 40 photos.. each with an exposure time of 25 seconds at f/2.8, ISO 3200 – 14mm. (5 seconds between each photo). I used the interval timer on my D810 to capture the photos. It took a lot of work (trial and error) to get this shot with the correct and desired composition, but it was worth the work.
The Milky Way is gliding across the top and Pagosa Peak is silhouetted to the right as we spin through the galaxy. I truly can just stare at this photos for hours.

shooting the night sky at fort griffin in texas. the clouds hid the milky way from displaying her beauty, but that is ok – we got some awesome night shots with the old administration building using light painting techniques.
the old administration building was lit with a lantern, while i ran towards the building for 25 seconds wearing a black diamond headlamp.

The torchlight ski in Ketchum, Idaho on Christmas Eve. Hasselblad and Kodak Portra 400. About a 5 minute exposure I think.
I spent about an hour capturing numerous images and blending them in Photoshop to create the star trails. The lighthouse and the buildings were a separate blend of 7 separate images to retain as much detail as possible. I combined both blends in Photoshop. Noise reduction and sharpening were done in PhotoAI.
13/365: chaos theory
chaos | when the present determines the future, but the approximate present does not approximately determine the future.
wHen wE FeEL chAOs HOW dO we reACT….
do we inhale the chaos?
do we abandon ourselves?
do we determine the chaos is just random and move forward?
do we succumb to the entropy?
Photo taken at Colorado Bend State Park with my Nikon D810 for an exposure time of 25 seconds at f/2.8, ISO 1250 – 15mm. The chaos is represented by my light painting with a glow stick.

⛺jupiter🌠 🌠
tell me did you sail across the sun
did you make it to the milky way to see the lights all faded
and that heaven is overrated
did you fall from a shooting star
one without a permanent scar
and did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there.

Was hoping to get some meteors from the Orionid Meteor Shower, but only saw one on the drive up early this morning. Taken over a period of 1-1/2 hours in the pre-dawn hours. The thicker trail is from Venus, Jupiter and Mars.

“the darkest nights produce the brightest stars.”
i had an opportunity to photograph the night sky recently and decided to try a new technique for capturing star trails.
my past star trail photos have been a sequence of stacked images in photoshop.
this star trail photo is a single image for an exposure time of 60 minutes. this is my one and only night photo from my recent trip as the skies did not cooperate for more. i’m thankful for this beautiful shot.
feel free to share – photos like this remind me how small i really am and how much i have yet to discover about myself and the universe around me.

I have always wanted to attempt something like this and I finally found the time and a dark place to do it.
This photo consists of 63 photos exposed for 30 seconds.
I hope you like it!
I made a time-lapse video with music played by myself on guitar you can view that here youtu.be/qrdNDcydx9o
