Hi all
On top of one of the hills facing South East at Lostock Scout Camp, there’s a row of 5 trees that really stand out. I always wanted to make them more of a focus of something photographic. I used them in my
Raining Stars at Lostock image from IISAC2008, but it was a much wider field.
On Friday night, 16th October at IISAC2009, I wanted to try again with a longer focal length. I setup my Canon 20D and 24-105mm L lens on a tripod, and programmed it to take 30 seconds exposures on repeat.
I combined the result into a movie – showing both timelapse and star trails. There’s also a single star trails image with all of the frames combined.

Attached is a smaller version of the still image -

Thanks for looking. Comments and feedback welcome.
