Planes, Trucks, Cars, Clouds & Time........HFF
A concept shot. Surround the tree in a halo.
Easier said than done when you cant see the Southern Cross or the Pointers. this was method three as it was all I could see. I watched for days the expected cloud cover to see if it was even possible.

On the bus trip we went back to the same pace and I had a window in the dark of 1/1/2 hours before the bus left. I am out in a field in grass heads chest height( snake territory) Electric fence at my back. This is only 40 of the total 50 shots before the clouds closed the night far to early but thats part or Astro photography.

I am chuffed my head shot you can see before you in all its unexpected glory.

What a great shot, the celestial roundabout! You very cleverly integrated that foreground fence:-) I'd have been scared to go into snake terrain....

Who dares wins I live on the principal they dont like me and would rather move away and I wanted the shot to prove it could be done and in the hope in the last three years I did learn some thing. Fence I could not take out of the shot it was a 2M high fence so it was always going to be in the shot. Hey HFF material.....

I thought it best for any one who wants to learn from these to put them all together in one place. It makes it easier to see the subtle differences.
