Hi All,
I'm sure you're all sick of seeing these, as a quick search reveals that I'm fairly late at having a go at this! (In fact, i see David had already beaten me to the location beat me to it! )
Anyway, here is my first attempt at star trails, with a tripod and remote shutter release straight of our their respective boxes!
54 30-second images using Startrails.exe as the merge method.
My torch wasn't as strong as I had hoped to light the foreground - If I boosted the brightness on the image where i was painting with the torch, would it bring out more detail in the foreground/viaduct? or would it ruin the balance do you think?
The moon started to encroach at the top of the frame unfortunately.
Would love to hear your thoughts.
Tom
