Old Friend revisited

Lovely shot. What a shame about the graffiti!

Last time my son ans I made a mud slurry to cover the yellow paint, criminal really. its good to look back and see If you have improved. Just loved the night teaching and bringing the wonders to someone else's camera there face.

It looks like an alians head from the world beyond with the graffiti its strange eye Steve ... fantastic work and faved by me

Best wishes ... Steve

I know what you mean a Rock that's lends itself well to this but first time I have used all of the group. Part of my enjoyment is bring the night alive. Many thanks Steve

It's a fantastic orb of a rock and always great in your night photos!

Gudrun i look at this and the very first astro photo i took ... have i learnt , have i moved forward and can i improve. it was a great shoot i did not get much time as i was doing the star trail but i was able to lay on my back looking up at the stars and enjoying the experience to help some one else learn and look at the same sky with a new wonder. its always a pleasure to bring the night alive and some thing i enjoy and look forward to. thanks from me its always a pleaseure to read your comments makes the capture even more worth while getting out and coming home with the results.

These rocks seem timeless, Stave. I love the quality of colour and of course the night sky. I really ought to learn how to do this sort of photography. A beautiful shot, and even better than the one that you posted 2 years ago. The grouping of the rocks is perfect.

you hit the nail on the head and to think that some person with no respect can ruin it for others. Amelia it is truly not hard just some thought of what you want to do and know your gear and there limits. I think the two years of learning does show and to get the same on another camera that has never been out before is a big plus for me and with a huge language barrier (Chinese) makes this shoot even better. many thanks from me if you ever want some help at the moment you know where i am.

Excellent exposure! =) Foreground just perfectly lit.
