Hi,

199 seconds - f5.6 - ISO 200 - 28MM - pitch dark - light source: the moon.

Kronoberg Slott, Växjö, Sweden.



Please post your own long exposure photos!!

Best regards,

Henrik Andersson
 
I agree that it was exposed too long. Star trails are evident and it does appear to be daylight. It's a very cool old castle. Try again using various time spans from 15 sec. to 45 sec. and see what you get.
Cheers,

I tried 15 seconds but it was way too short. Remeber the circumstances, completely dark, -14 degrees Celcius. I only got one or two opportunities.

Hejsan Henrik,

Jag har bott ett par år i Värnamo, men nu tillbaka i mina hemtrakter i Västsverige.

This picture was taken in a clear night, not as long exposure as you had ;) set up but I wanted to keep the sky as dark as possible but still to see the stars. I did a lot of test shots before I got a few decent. Longer than 10 sec and the stars will be blurry because of the earth rotation.

Hmmm... anyone know why my screenshot picture was lighter than the one I saved to pbase? I took the screenshot then saved to JPG without changing any settings.

Very strange. I would like to know so I can keep them both the same. Maybe something to do with color space?
Here's your picture, my edit.

Here's what I did:

Indeed, you turned night into day with a little moonlight!

Here's one from last summer, showing some bright night clouds (noctilucent clouds):

Very very nice photos,

Is the first photo taken in a californian desert? Joshua Tree or Zion? My brother went there a year ago and he absolutely loved those places. I wanna go there too.
