polaris – 2 minute exposure from la azohia

the images


the blurb

no tracking mount on holiday so a straight 2 minute exposure of the only bit of the sky that wouldn’t move too much during that time – polaris.

the second shot shows the ‘engagement ring’ – the semi-circles of stars to the lower right (here) of Polaris. This image is a crop of the original at full size (ie no zom). it also shows that these stars were still moving…

shot on canon 400d, ISO 200, through zenisthar 66, 120s exposure.
