This is my second attempt at doing nighttime landscapes. I'm not very good
at it yet.
Anyway this is a 2 image composite shot using the K1 and DFA* 85/1.5 using
the Astrotracer for the sky and time exposure for the foreground.
Enjoy

It's lovely! Nice geometry.. , nice colors, nice atmosphere - looks to
me like you're pretty good at it.

Thanks Larry. The camera was giving me kittens last night. I've been using
the Fuji so much I've forgotten how to run a K1, which is embarrassing. The
GPS gave me an OK for calibration, but I suspect I should have done it
again. I don't think it was tracking quite right. I wasn't getting the
exposure times I thought I should have been getting before I started
getting trails.
Also, the DFA* 50/1.4 is not an especially good lens for this, as I have
read on several night photography forums.
One of my goals this year is to get some decent night sky photographs.
I did discover a couple of cool features in the K1. Timed bulb exposures up
to twenty minutes is supported by the camera, for example. I didn't know
about this until I decided I wanted to try shooting night scenes.
Also, my location seemed pretty dark, but apparently wasn't.
I live pretty close to one of the dark sky places in North America. It's
about a 3 hour drive from me. My intention is to hone my skills a bit more
and then head out there for a session.
thanks again

Thanks Ann. It's a bit creepy standing around in a dark field wondering if
there are coyotes stalking you, but it turned out OK.

Very nice. Your next challenge, as you go off to the darker locales, will be to find another perfect foreground for your stars.

Thanks guys. I had actually thought it was pretty dark, I might have lifted
the shy more than I should have. I like the effect, but it's not a true
representation of the sky in rural Saskatchewan at 1:00 am.
I tried to do something more representative, but it looks like I have about
a thousand hot pixels.
