About A 30 second exposure during a night of observing at a fairly dark site (not much light pollution). Contrast and brightness levels were greatly increased. The faint band of light going from top to bottom is the Milky Way.

Ha! right my dear Ryan with the polar alignment is all resolved!
Furthermore if you do with film, you can "take" the best frame.
And with a suitable program can "add" the frame, so that you will recover every single "colour" of the sky, for a photography indeed show...

good track the sky..

(P.S. I have a reflector 150/1000.. of the Bresser Optik)

take care and see you soon my friend.
have to goodnight!

Hi Roby, thanks so much for your comments. You're right about the milky way, it looks nicer when you bring out the nebulosity. I want to try longer exposures, but I'm going to do it with film, and mount it on my telescope so I can polar align it and track the sky.

Hello Ryan...
I am careful to look at this photography of the sky... I love the astronomy... Unfortunately I do not have time to be dedicated to this passion and periodically I put myself with the nose in "up", but I am not able to understand what part is of the "milk way". . maybe "sirio" is the luminous star... certainly. . excellent also the choice of the "fifth theatrical" the perfect trees is a photography to be looked in his set ... of effect as though I was looking at the sky! then I turn the light off in my room and here... the "sky-blue time" appears... So good
I see that noise does not exist, and this is because the "sensor" was quite cold.
It is a good shot! you are a master...
It is a humble opinion of mine but it was possible to increase the laying and to close the diaphragm to obtain also the ?neboulousity? of the central part of the milky way.
The only problem is what beyond 30 sec. the motion of the stars is seen!
If the CCD of your car allows a greater ISO with the same laying and without "pursuit" the result is the same.
I allowed "to create" what my idea would have!
cheers
roby

Ok Ryan you've sold me! I'm going to sell up here, move to there, and live in a tent between the trees!!!!! Absolutely fabulous sky shot. Due to light pollution, my long exposures of the sky turn out mucky brown. Once again congratulations on a superb shot.

The sky always is stunning. Good shot. Saw a sky a little like that on a mountain in Switserland this summer and was sad I only had a compact with me ;)

Thanks Tim, I've always thought about that also. Look up and pick out a star, it may have gone supernova and dissappeared, but we won't know untill the photons travel millions of lightyears.

No way! i only counted 150 million....now don't get wild with the numbers!... LOL... I remember and still it comes to my awareness that what we see in the sky at this time was what it was a million years ago and not the present. A strange relization when i was a kid. Good photo it brings out my fasination of the sky again.

Cheers tim

Thanks a lot Phillip, this picture was last weekend actually. I did get a couple of shots of the meteors, but it's with my film camera, so you'll have to wait until I scan them in to my PC.

hey ryan, im assuming this is last night, hope you got to see at least a few of the meteors... great time exposure with the digital, no noise at all, im still trying to play around with mine to see if i can start taking longer exposures without digital noise, but if not there is allways film right....

great work

phil
