Wide self portrait..

Taken last night in Essex - I was shooting a sequence for AVI/Star trails and decided to get in on the action!

Nice one. Adding a person in the image gives a sense of scale

That's a brilliant shot, Simms. As Michael says, it does give the sense of the enormity of it all, would make a good book cover as well.

Very nice. Were you alone? your very brave walking off and leaving your kit if so. Where abouts in Essex was it taken by the way, i have a friend that lives just outside Stow Maries and it seems incredibly good dark sky viewing.

Nice shot, was this with the 16-35 f2.8?

nice shot, i wouldnt be as brave leaving my kit so far away,

To be honest leaving the kit isnt really an issue - this is a secure location and the chances of anyone non-astro related turning up are pretty much nil. Thanks for all the kind comments!

Wicked shot!

but what happened to the rule of thirds?

Naaa seriously, great shot

[Simms]

Pffft- rule of [removed word].

Rhymes with words but with a cheeky T at the start - hardly effing & jeffing.

You know you love me really
