The night skies of Somerset

Great for CWP Herb you caught a lot of stars.

Hi Gordon. Taken on my last British holiday. I was looking for an opportunity to post this and the CWP provided it. I was hoping to catch the whole Milky Way but it was not to be. ~ Not as stunning as your entry but I like it.

Cheers. Herb

Wow ! Looks great !

Very well captured Herb and love the informative PiP.

Cheers, Rosa.

So glad you liked this image from down your way. Very happy too that you found my PiP map informative. I often use Stellarium to see what is above me in the rare night skies that I see nowadays.

Cheers. Herb

woderful picture and really worth full screen!

Thank you Markus. It was most gratifying to get this. I was only disappointed not to get the Milky Way clearer.

Best Wishes. Herb

Herb not matter how you feel about the shot in the scheme of things this is a brilliant shot. Top marks for some interest to the sky as a foreground that gives the sky some scale. The fact you got to see the stars and where ready to jump in a catch a shot says a whole lot. all the info you need to call on and being able to work in the dark. I think you totally underestimate the shot and the plan from stellarium only brings it alive a bit more. The fact you have never given in but try and plan a shot or two no matter what clouded or not the interest is still there. Glad to see this in the CWP all the very best.
