Just to keep people happy and prove i havnt given up the night shooting, heres a shot from last night of the new snugburys statue... :)
Startrails over the Froggensee in southern germany. In the background you can see the Neuschwanstein Castle on the hill.
First attempt at a startrail, im pleased with it for a first go, but the starstax software lightened the foreground so much the final image had horrendous noise, so i had to select the tree and foreground in PS with a luminosity mask then use a strong curves layer to darken it back down . So a bit more processing than i would of liked. 130 images stacked in starstax, using a samyang 14mm f2.8 (please view full size)

My first ever attempt at star trails saw me heading down to a local tree - down by the Ouse - which I've photographed a few times before. With York to the north and the moon creeping southwards I only had about a 60 minute window to get set up, learn how to do it, and get the shots needed before having to give up for the night.
Fortunately, everything went quite smoothly...
This is 45 minutes worth of exposures, 20s each at f4, 3200ISO.
In these dark times where reason is (almost) totally lost and we are more and more supinely commanded by dictatorial governments (especially here in Italy!), with continuous new impositions that generate phobia, deaths, psychological and educational discomforts, suicides and poverty, social hardships of all kinds, and when we are even no longer allowed to breathe freely outside, it is good to never lose the healthy habit of observing the cosmos... āuseless activityā one can say, probably yes, probably no, I certainly do not wish to have the last word on the sacred relationship that each of us has with the infinite, the inscrutable, the Mystery, which has always surrounded the human being.
Fact that the more I observe the cosmos, at night, in the mountains, the more I understand it is useless to be afraid, much less angry. This terror, so professionally instilled up by cheap people, because they cannot see beyond their own squalid power interests, does not deserve any consideration. The beauty of the cosmos will remain, those people will pass. āRemember that all through history, there have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they seem invincible. But in the end, they always fall. Always.ā Mahatma Gandhi.
If compared to the previous shot this photograph shows more in detail the Dents d'Ambin (3.372 m).
Clearly present in the sky the trails of light left by the stars due to the Earth's rotation during the long exposure.
The brightest band near the Dents summits is caused by the Milky Way.

Got up stupendously early yesterday morning to get to Glastonbury for some night images. The wind up here was absolutely freezing, it was a massive relief to get down again after an hour or two at the top!
This is about 140 30 second exposures blended manually in photoshop. I've given up on single image startrails here as the light pollution is just too strong.
5dmkii, 28mm f.2 zeiss, 30 secs @ f4.5 iso 400 x 140
The image consists of around 60 individual images that I exposed for 30 seconds. The images were put together using Star Trax and Lightroom CC. Taken with the Canon R6 Mark II and the Tamron 15-30-2.8 G2.
Since all the EXIF data got killed by StarStax:
Canon EOS 7D
Tokina 11-16 at 11mm
f/3.2
30s per frame
128 pictures ... then my camera gave up :-)
One extra shot to improve the foreground.
60-minute startrail, started exactly as the clocks changed to BST overnight Saturday.
