Description

Posted in Categories: Landscapes -  Styled -  

Well I found out something useful taking this shot. If the 350d runs out of battery during a long time exposure - you don't lose the shot! Wonderful news indeed. This exposure was something close to 2 hours. It was too long for the EXIF data to tell me accurately how long, but when I came back out of the van to check on it at 2 hours the camera was quite dead. But whack a new battery in and there was my shot. Super.

    Great picture Gary. 2 hours is a long exposure with such low noise apparent in the image.

    Two hours! Holy cow indeed! Superb stuff. Those star trails are incredible.

    wow I can't imaging taking a 2 hour exposure. The photo is fantastic! Glad it kept the shot, It would have been a dissapointing extra two hours to sit and take it again.

    I like the star trails in this shot and I'm amazed that the light sources didn't blow out the exposure over the 2 hours.

    at first i didn' like the colour in the sky, but i like it! a bit of colour is good. is that a plane i see?

    Thanks for all the feedback guys. There is actually 2 plane trails faintly visible in this pic. We are looking straight at the flight path that leads to Perth airport from the Eastern States. The image did have horrible amounts of noise and it was a lot of work to eliminate it. the PS noise reduction wouldn't touch it cause the noise was so harsh.

    Oh my goodness....2 hours? This is wonderful!

    This is beautiful! Do you already have an idea of what it might look like when you do these long exposures?

    We sure turn a long way in 2 hours. Very cool image. I am surprised the van lights did not get over exposed. Glad they didnt.
