Fish eye SPSP redo

Hi Guys

I did a Sid on this one, a time lapse from SPSP 10, removed stray offending subs, and cleaned it right up. In hindsight the 1st post was a mess.

To recap, 3hrs of 120 off intermittent 30 sec exposures taken with a Canon 40D DSLR, 50mm lens with a fish eye bolt on at 1600 ISO.

A bigger version here.

The "cone" effect on the star field was an unexpected and nice bonus

That's great Fred! Love the perspective effect.
Looks like Fri or Sat night from all the action.
Were you set up next to Phil?

Looks like you're having a ball, Fred!

Love the unusual perspective!

I was practically sitting on top of the septic tank to the E of the house. Wish I'd had more time to travel around and meet the imaging crowd, but most nights I was treking back and forth to the main camp to hang out with friends and peer through the big dobs while my scope happily tracked on.

Was a great trip - glad I got to one.
Cheers,

Amazing image Fred - looks like a giant wormhole looking down at earth.
