I decided to pop up there tonight with the idea of trying to capture some stars and maybe the milky way.
It was bloody cold!
I managed to get a few stars in the shot and you can just make out a bit of the milky way above the windmill if you squint!
I think I need to learn mor in the pp side of things because I am sure there must be some way of removing some of the light pollution and enhancing the stars a little. I think that will be my project this week.
Oh it was also my first attempt at light painting as well.
Please let me know what you think and any tips in the pp department. ( I am a complete novice i was trying to work out layers earlier and failed)
