Nice. :wings: How did you approach this one? Was is one long exposure or multiple 7-8 minute exposures blended together?

I still need to give long star trails a try.

I took that one in one shot. I was at 17mm f4.0 iso 200 for 50 minutes.

Cool, did you have much noise to deal with? I have heard that super long exposures like that can heat of the sensor and cause excessive noise. That's why some folks take many 7-8 minute shots and then combine them.

I would prefer one long exposure and your results seem to indicate it works just fine. :sombrero:

The noise wasn't to bad. The only PP done was converting it to B&W. The noise was mostly in the foreground.

My favorite 'Halloween Tree' on the back forty of the cabin:

Of course, we need a 'Black Cat' to complete the theme:elkgrin:

Not sure where "Little cat 'O' " thought she was going, but at least she caught herself!
