10/10 for composition with the silhouetted scope in the foreground. (http://www.mackenzie1963.freeserve.co.uk/Smilies/AMac%27s/fing02%5B1%5D.gif) Title: Re: Star Trail Post by: paulster78 on August 15, 2011, 08:33:25 pm Stunning image Anton, really like that :)
Title: Re: Star Trail Post by: Anton on August 16, 2011, 10:22:55 am Thanks all for the comments will go for the same setup again soon, I lost half the images taken because of dew forming on the lens so I have just made a heated dew shield in true Blue Peter style ;D
Title: Re: Star Trail Post by: martinastro on August 31, 2011, 01:39:21 pm You are turning into a fantastic night sky photographer Anton!!, excellent star trail image and as Richard said, 10/10 for the composition :)
Title: Re: Star Trail Post by: dogstar on September 15, 2011, 10:15:20 pm Great star trail image Anton am i right in saying that you've done very little if any processing, the reason i ask is that you captured a lot of faint stars that when brought out would really fill the trails out but fab image either way nice work :) |
