The Pike under the stars

very nice
Wish you a sunny day.

Thanks for this and yes, it has been sunny today.

Best Wishes. Herb

Très réussi J'aimerais bien faire une photo comme celle-ci bonne journée.

Good that you have enjoyed this Patrick. Only three things needed to make photos like this: clear dark night sky, a suitable camera with tripod and the urge to try something different. Hope you manage it some day.

Best Wishes. Herb

Eine sehr gelungene Nachtaufnahme!

Thanks so much Jo. Glad you enjoyed it.

Gorgeous light and a beautiful sky. The silhouettes are wonderful and I love the stars and colour in the sky.

Best viewed large..!! Excellent work Herb..!! ⭐️

Thanks for this Keith. On the last night of our holiday in Norfolk, I looked outside and was amazed how totally black it was with stars between the nearby trees as bright as burning torches. I took some photos of that too but have yet to finalise them. - Last night I knew it was going to be dark and so rushed up here at 10pm to capture this. however the sky was nowhere near as black as Norfolk, plus the invading Manchester city lights made for only a photo such as this. However, very pleased that you thought it so successful and I really appreciate your comment here.

Best Wishes. Herb

We don't have any really dark places near us nowadays Herb, light pollution seems to be everywhere!

You did really well in Norfolk though!

Wonderful atmospheric picture.

Thanks for this Chris. Too much light and poor technique shutter speed resulting is star movement here but heh - I don't get a lot of practice of stars nowadays :)

Best Wishes. Herb

Beautiful night shot!

Thanks William.

A wonderful capture Herb possibly a bit late for the Blue Hour but as administrator it's up to me !

Glad you liked it Peter. Yes, a little late to be of the blue hour as I had to walk with a head-torch. Funny thing is, I don't get to do many shots of that blue hour at all.

Cheers. Herb

Well worth the effort. It has great potential for another effort but I’m not sure how easy it will be to improve a darker sky changes everything

Thanks Colin. I should have known better as the light pollution up here is terrible. It did not help that my head-lamp battery faded on me here. No doubt I will try again in time -perhaps another go at multiple stitched photos.

Cheers. Herb

You have to be very motivated to go out and take night photos like this Herb nice one.
All the best.

Hi Toz, I know you have tried a few night star photos too and so know the routine here. I had hoped to capture the Milky Way but I could not see it with my naked eye so ended with this pictorial shot. My ambition was to catch the MW behind the tower but.... Glad you liked it.

Cheers. Herb

Herb its a great shot, close you do see the stars movment the biggest part is it all happens so fast you dont have time to think. I believe 10 out of 10 for what you did get most would not have tried let alone leave home. if you had gone to 10 sec I think you would have nailed the shot I think the moral is never give in. Most would just pass it by top marks for trying and capturing a great image none the less. A sky I see so little of Thank you.
