Bingo the plan and workings came together Perfectly stars look very good. Looking at data turn long noise reduction on, so you 15 sec shot + 15 sec noise reduction. Thats how I do it long noise reduction works. Looking forward to a few more.

Thanks so much, Steve. I've been looking at some of my earlier photos and some of them don't have the problem at F2.8. The main thing now is I hopefully can catch it going forward and be able to do something about it. Thanks also for the tip on the long noise reduction. It's turned on now so hopefully less post NR needed.

wonderful silhuette

Thanks you AnneMarie.

Exceptional capture!

Thanks you William.

Always good to see such shots of our night skies with stars. I think I can just about see the Milky Way too. Well done.

Best Wishes. Herb

Thank you Herb. It was really dark and I had finite time. I've passed this spot a few times in the daylight and wanted to try it at night.

All the stars in the sky, the dark silhouette of the tree and the small lights of the two houses in the background - a fantastic, almost surreal shot.

Thanks you so much Christa. I'm glad you like it. This spot draws me back from time to time. I need to go further up next time.

Such clarity in the sky. Every star a winner, The silhouette of the pine is a bonus.

Thank you Amelia. It was a lovely crisp night and it always tempts me out to see the stars.

Most beautiful!
I like stary skies, I like trees and hilly landscapes ... what a wonderful well composed and captured image!
Great you left earlier.
;-)

Thank you for the nice comment, Leon.

A wonderful combination. The tree in the foreground, the hills and the blue night sky with the stars fit perfectly together!
