Hi all,
Went to a dark sky observing night with the Astronomical Society of Albury Wodonga. Couldn't resist sneaking off over the hill and taking some photos.
Dark skies + long exposure + head torch on a string = fun under the stars.
I found this rather unusual tree growing out of a crack in a boulder earlier on in the day and I wanted to capture it under the stars. I did a number of various compositions and lighting methods on it. As I was about to leave the area I decided to just let my hair down and go crazy with some light painting. This is my favorite shot from the night.
Single 30 second exposure
Cheers
Greg
