First shots of the night while Jupiter is still high and bright. Please look at this shot full size on black to get a real feeling of the night.

Thanks Steve,,, I have had an interest in astronomy and more so 'Cosmology' since being fascinated by 'Carl Sagan's 'Cosmos' series back in the 70s.
I know and understand the technique of capturing night sky photo's such as your excellent work here... but I've never had much success. Probably city lights and my lack of finding clear regions.
Thanks again and all the best from Dj.

I always believe the two clouds are part of the sky show so I do my best to always have them in the shot. Yes at 11:45pm I was squarely in the middle of the road not even in a 1 horse town it was so small and sleepy to get this shot and I saw not a car. I wear a huge white coat at night so I cant be missed. Yes the best part of living in WA and getting out in the black.Glad you enjoy the night as much as I do.

DJ I can tell you its easy as I have done the hard yards and I understand just what I am doing but its easy to follow as you already know. Herb has taken the few steps to try with my help.

the end result comes with some planning and understanding I can only recommend if you have the gear that can handle the night work its 100% worth the effort. as you can see by this group I started.

Peter I hope you get the chance if you see a night just try that will start your interest. its not hard as you can see once you take the first step. try for stars at first then once you can get comfortable the planning for the milky way is not that hard. glad you like the shots, All the very best from down under.
