russ 694 Posted August 9, 2011 That is a fantastic star trail pic Martin. Don't see many these days which is a shame. You have very little light pollution too. Link to comment
Martyn_Bannister 10 Posted August 9, 2011 HI Russ, thanks, but I had to get the airliner too! Only 25 sec subs, so LP doesn't show up much, but then nothing but the stars do either. I have Petersfield north, chichester east and several street lights so there is LP aplenty above 4 minutes :)As I set the camera up at 02:45 I saw one dying Perseid on the eastern horizon and absolutely nothing after that. Too late methinks!!! The milky way was very bright (for my back garden!) so I am hoping to do a 17mm tracking shot of that tonight/tomorrow if the clouds clear like they did this morning. Shame we missed TH, by all accounts it was awesome! Link to comment
russ 694 Posted August 9, 2011 A real shame about TH, didn't see that one coming. The weather forecast gave a clear spell around 4am at best.....grrrBook your diary for the 27th August and 3rd Sept....then cross fingers. Hope we get another night like that.Look forward to seeing the 17mm tracking shot. It was very clear this morning, although the seeing was shockingly bad for Jupiter. Link to comment
