First outing in over a year - Astro in Wales

[cymruchris]

What with one thing and another - just as many of you - I haven't been out and about with my camera for over a year. So on Friday night, with the sky clear, I took a drive towards Brecon just to get a few shots in. I found that my tripod no longer held my camera steady, and the head was slipping, so there's something to look at - but otherwise had a go and came back with a few. All of these were done in camera - I'm sure the smart ones amongst you will be able to work out what I did. Does it work? (The blue ones I mean) they have a certain impact there's no doubt. Taken on a 1dx2 and an 11-24mm.

Nicely done Chris. Certainly different.

UV painting with torch?

UV painting with torch?

Yes - I didn't realise that UV light did that to lichen - but had a torch that cycles through LED white of different intensities and then UV - and noticed when switching through that it caused the glow.
