At the scenery, of course. After a slow hunt last night I stopped at the truck to try a new idea. Is it possible to make a night shot look like daylight with stars? My first attempt with 2-5 minute exposures says yes and no. I may need a full moon to make it work in less time (to minimize star trails), but I like the look anyway. Next time I'll use more moon and see how it goes.

Very cool.

Very cool pics. If I ever figure our how to use my camera I will try this. I stayed in the blind till 2 am under the full moon this past Saturday waiting for the hogs to come out, which they never did. I did see the biggest buck anyone has seen around our area under the full moon. I kept joking saying that since buck season was over we would see a monster and sure enough he showed up.

Amazing how much color you got in the landscape. Please share your camera settings.

Think I read somewhere that you can expose up to 20 seconds without getting movement in stars. This old world is moving fast.

If I remember correctly, it was ISO 1600, f2.8, and exposure was 3 minutes for the first shot, 5 minutes for the second, and 3 for the third.

The color is always interesting to me. It's easy to think that at night time everything is black and white (or very subdued color) but a long exposure can really show what's really there!

I started learning photography only last year, beyond the point and shoot that is. Experimenting like what you did here is what facinates me.

Me too. I've dabbled in photography since high school in the late 80s and it still fascinates me!
