A roll in the dark

CCD vs Film? Lots of time vs no patience? Alright, this is your place to discuss all the astrophotography what's and what's not. You can discuss about techniques, accessories, cameras, whatever....just make sure you also post some nice photos here too!

A roll in the dark

Post by Barry »

Ahhhh, to have the luxury of doing time-lapse at home instead of driving miles to some dark site....these things are so much fun to make!

I set the camera up on a tripod on my footpath in the front yard, set the timers and let it run for a few hours.

As a friend told me recently, it's a good thing I had the camera pointing up so all those photons didn't go to waste.

Thanks for looking,

Baz.
