Thanks for the kind words lads.
Frank, the polar star trails are from the film camera, the scorpius one is from the 300D.
Given the brightness of the sky there, I reckon 2 or 3 hour + exposures are feasible at that site. Next time !!
The red light was indeed me looking for the tripod.
Believe it or not, it took me 10 minutes+ to find the tripod after I left it alone at one stage, it was that dark there. !!

Nice to see your images Dave.

What's with the red light waving around the place - were you on the beer or something?? :wink:

Lads, I have good news!
Speaking about memories, Nick Tremoulis made a lovely DVD with scenes from the Parnon July starparty. Yesterday we had a gathering at Nick's place and we all enjoyed it.
Wow!!! It 's fantastic!
I have 4 copies for you, and one copy for John Murphy! Hi John!
I think it is best to give the copies to you in Novosibirsk, rather than sending it by post mail. OK?
