I nicked off by myself the other night as it was clear, cold and cloudless, to get some more photos of the milky way and also I put fresh batteries in my intervalometer and had half an idea of how to go about doing star trails, learned a lot from the last time I did this, so this is my result ................
The water foreground is actually the flood filter as the sea which was originally in the foreground I had to revise slightly as there was a cruising boat moored in front of the camera, rotating around in the wind, and looked pretty daggy after 80 shots were put together.
What I did was use my D7000 with 10-24mm lens at about 20mm, f3.5, ISO 2500, 80 by 20 second shots with an interval of 2 seconds in between each exposure. Managed to successfully eyeball the Southern Cross for finding the south celestial pole and yeah, much happier with this one than the time before.
Hope you like ..............
Oh and going out doing milky ways and star trails is not Pete's idea of a good time, so that's why I went on my own
