Inspired by some of the recent shots here, I had a go...

Some clouds rolling in from the left ruined my subsequent shots so I had just this one usable.. But I'll be sure to get out there again when the nights are even darker :)

cheers
geof
 
I love star shots and this is great imo.
 
Thanks everyone, somehow I missed your comments earlier, sorry!

I'll definitely try to capture clearer skies during the autumn as well, don't mind a few clouds but I'd like a good go at the milky way also.
 
fantastic shot love it.
 
great stuff.... love the graduation of light from right to left :clap:

did you change the ISO to suit the 30 second exposure, rather than using bulb mode?
 
I went with the 30s exposure because a) it was there and easy to use (just dial it in) b) I wanted a shot with no star trails but exposed for the clouds & sea as well. I was using the Samyang 14mm f/2.8 so didn't want to have exposure times beyond 30s anyway.

The best thing about this shot is that it's from my own terrace at the summer cabin, so I can sit there and look at the view every weekend... Not that I could see all those stars with the naked eye :) But I can feel a 20cm dobson mounted telescope calling my name!
