Paddys River Falls, NSW. Australia

I will add this location to my list of revisit sites. I would ideally like to go back when there is a bit of moonlight to help light up the landscape better. It was a spur of the moment decision to go here and do a night sky shoot. I arrived too late, just on dark, and even though I had been here a couple of times before, the almost pitch black made it impossible to find a safe spot closer to the falls.
Single loooong exposure. All exif data is correct except for the focal length. Shot at 14mm.

THIS...is too cool, Greg I like it as is but you may be right--it might take another visit one day. Great photos are like poetry--they are never really finished the artists just stops working on them

Awesome!

Thank you so much for the great feedback John Yeah I will be certainly heading back here for another shoot one night. I'll wait till it's a bit warmer though. This was the coldest I have ever been taking a photo.

Natiaaa [2012-06-12 12:36:19 +0000 UTC]

Another amazing shot! Are stars pointing out the south pole? (I mean centre of their turning, don't know how to name it)

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

CapturingTheNight In reply to Natiaaa [2012-06-13 08:49:17 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much Yes the center of the circles is the south celestial pole which would be directly overhead at the south pole.

Natiaaa In reply to CapturingTheNight [2012-06-13 11:39:49 +0000 UTC]

That's interesting. But when you're in in the equatorial zone, which pole will stars point out?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

CapturingTheNight In reply to Natiaaa [2012-06-13 12:28:57 +0000 UTC]

If you were on the equator and you looked either north or south the stars would appear to make half circles. The pivot point would be too low on the horizons to get a full circle effect.
