Star trails over Chillenden windmill.

[Felias]

It was rather windy last night, and clouds got in the way sporadically, so it was not worth setting up the full rig. But it is the last weekend of my holidays, so I wanted to go out. I decided that star trails would be fine in such weather, and I had only done them once many years ago. Besides, I had been meaning to photograph the Chillenden windmill since I found out that its restoration was completed, and it's only a 20-minute drive from home.

Canon 77D, Samyang 16mm f/2. 110 x 1min subs, ISO 200, F2.8. I light-painted the mill with my headlamp.

I have made a timelapse:

The random lights on the windmill are from cars, it is near a road. And there's ALWAYS traffic in Kent!
