Wishing everyone a Safe and Happy upcoming Festive Season from Capturing The Night.
I truly appreciate all the support of my work I have received over the past year. I apologise for my lack of activity over the last month or so. I underwent surgery a couple of weeks ago to fix a problem which has been giving me grief for a while. Now that I am pretty much back to normal I hope I will be able to get out under the stars a lot more soon. I did manage to sneak out briefly last week for the Geminids Meteor Shower. I had two cameras going in two different directions. I visually saw lots of faint meteors but didn't capture many on camera. The best I managed was this bright green one reflected in the lake next to Venus and it was not even a true Geminid as it did not originate from the radiant point. Also managed to catch a pass of the International Space Station on the same camera.
14/12/2015 Lake Hume, Australia. Canon 5DMkII, 14mm, F/2.8, ISO 3200, 30 seconds. Multiple image composite. One single image for the Meteor, Venus, and foreground, and seven images for the ISS trail as it made its way across the sky.
Cheers
Greg
