Yooper startrails

My son Hunter and I spent the Spring Break week at our cabin in the UP. The weather was fabulous! Warm days and clear nights made for perfect startrail photography. We tried several shots, but this was my best effort. I love the dark skies in the UP. With no urban light pollution it's a star gazers paradise.

 

Bigger and better

 

10mm fisheye, 62, 30 second exposures @ ISO 1600, f2.8 processed with free startrails software from www.startrails.de The final exposure was of the cabin with the lights on and a little light painting with a Maglight for added drama.
