Declan,

You really should start publishing your work more widely. These shots of yours are very saleable, they could easily pay for better kit without too much effort. I urge you to look into this.

PS - Tell Anto I was asking for him. Haven't seen him in over a year.

Clear Skies,

Incredible image. Those old ruins,burial sites sure do add a huge amount to any image. There is one near me but it is in the middle of a green in a housing estate with street lights all around. Even if i COULD take such an image......................it wouldnt work out cuz of the false lighting.

It's a couple of mins away from Lunartic...............i wonder if he has ever tried imaging there.

Super image Declan. The dewing is noticable because of the breaks in the trails at one end (look at the longer trails and notice the 'break'). You captured a great many trails there, I'm surprised by how many there are.

Seanie its the other end of the trails where you can notice the dewing as the trails narrow. Remember the sky turns anti-clockwise so the later images represent the right had side of the trails. I understand from talking to declan that the gaps at the beginning were caused by a couple of missing frames.

I also love the portrait aspect of this image, fits well as a desktop background on my portrait monitor at work :D

Ah, right, my mistake! Thanks for clarifying it Dave.
