had to have a go such a clear night

Could only take single subs as traffic was going past,  think I pushed it slightly to much as the stars are starting to trail, but getting a better understanding of it now and looking forward to my widefield lens coming

ment to put these two with the other one

Really nice start! You don't mention settings.

ISO 3200, 30 sec sub, think it was 3.5 F stop manual focus and some headlights off passing cars lol. Would have loved to have used my star adventurer on half speed but traffic was to much so just stuck the camera on a tripod

Wonderful views! I especially like the first two for their well framed foreground.

[brrttpaul]

Thank you very much

[redmoo]

Very nice pics! I'm pretty sure that is andromeda in the first picture as well, so nice one tagging that in there!

[brrttpaul]

Do you know I was dying to ask but thought must be a smudge lol

[redmoo]

Nope, it is Andromeda for sure. Those are photons of light that have been travelling for over 2.5 million years, and they hit your camera

[happy-kat]

Like the middle one as well for the framing of the landscape.

[brrttpaul]

Well I went to Trecastle res but soon as I arrived there it was thick fog, so headed back to Merthyr as soon as I got on the main A470 skies were completly clear so I pulled in just above the storey arms ( by the big bowl with the burger van pull in) this is where I took these, as I said though even at 10 o,clock there was still some traffic coming through so I just had to be quick and hope for the best
