Old Church

[adavis]

Well here is another one :-)

This is the moral to the story, really.
Went shooting Mount Banks on Saturday, and didnt really get anything useful for a number of reasons, so I headed out to my Parents at Oberon to try and jag some reflections of the milky way off Lake Oberon and by the time I got there it had clouded up and was windy. (not to mention that the newby in me actually forgo tot refocus the camera, but that is another story)

I called it a night early and headed home and went zipping past this old church thinking, hmm maybe I should stop. nah bugger it.

5 mins down the road I changed my mind and went back, and I am certainly glad that I did.

It just shows that out of a failed night, you can get something good if you persist!

That is very beautiful, Andrew. :)
For me, there's something extra magical seeing the milky way rise over buildings such as churches, and spooky looking places like decrepit old farm houses are even better. Adds a bit of mystery for me! :D And I just don't see enough of those shots. Hardly any in fact. :sadeyes:

:-) Thanks.

I will take another shot of this building from the other side, should give me the bright part of the milky way.

Well done on getting something out of the trip.
