Description Late autumn is depressing time for nature photography.. After about a week of cloudy and raining the sky became clear and my trigger finger was tingeling

12x two-minute exposures combined in photoshop making it 24 minutes total. New technique for me which I just found about. Goodbye noisy star trail shot and welcome noise free trails

Canon 20D | 10mm | f5,6 | ISO 400

very good, the wide angle lens effect isnt too overpowering, and the city glare across the water is great. i do not know and cannot tell if these are three separate pics spiced or one insanely good setting. never thought of splicing together multiple exposures in photoshop, great idea.

Saman efektinhÀn saa ihan kamerasta...pistÀÀ vaan bulb moodin pÀÀlle niin voi tehÀ vaikka 20 min valotusajan siinÀ nuo tÀhden liikkeet tulee kans hyvin nÀkyviin.

Pointti tuossa on se ettÀ saadaan sama efekti tehtyÀ paremmin. Ilman kohinoita ja pystytÀÀn hallitsemaan valotusta paremmin jne

try focusing to infinity af-works for me most of the time too and if you have moon visible try focusing on that

RS-foto In reply to ill23 [2008-11-19 16:57:34 +0000 UTC]

Open one of the images in Photoshop and add others as layers with Lightness blend mode. The exposure stays about the same but the stars create trails this way.
