Gold Hill and the Cosmos

Description

After weeks of cloud, one clear night was just the ticket for me to improve on my last image of Gold Hill. Setting up in the middle of the street, a little further down, I managed to avoid the street lighting from the bottom of the hill, and line up the Milky Way in the sky above the Blackmore Vale below. The sky was compiled of 10x30s exposures, ISO 6,400, f/4, 14mm on a Vixen Polarie sky tracker. The foreground was a six minute exposure at ISO 800.

A4 and limited edition mounted prints are printed on high quality Fuji glossy photo paper. Larger prints are available, printed on durable, scratch-proof and weather-proof vinyl, mounted on a 3mm thick aluminium composite board, creating a light, strong and unfussy product.
