Great shots Baz I was imaging at a similar focal length to you this morning as well. I'm pleased to see you also picked up the faint green colour in the sky, particularly in that last one. I initially thought my camera's white balance was on the blip, but then I remember seeing a similar thing in one of Alex Cherneys videos http://vimeo.com/28487411 Apparently caused by natural oxygen in the upper atmosphere. Someone else might know more about what causes this. I just take pictures

Thanks everyone!

I was wondering about the green cast! I tried and tried and tried again to adjust the white balance but every time I adjusted to get rid of green, everything else went to poo. I decided to mute it a bit so it didn't blow out and become unrealistic!

Now I know it wasn't my camera. Thanks for the scoop.

Baz.

Happy with that! That's two I've managed to chalk-up with UT this year. I'm chuffed.
