Great composition. Beautiful capture, looks like so much is going on there, and looks like a stop action shot. NIce Action: \| Ignore User Member Since: May 18, 2007 Comments: 8941

WOW! Would I love to live somewhere dark enough to do stuff like THAT! Congratulations, great pic. Chicago area isn't really conducive to astrophotography. Action: \| Ignore User Member Since: February 3, 2004 Comments: 7

Quoting MelHansen: WOW! Would I love to live somewhere dark enough to do stuff like THAT! Congratulations, great pic. Chicago area isn't really conducive to astrophotography. Hi Mel.. thanks for your comment, but you can do this type of imaging from Urban Skies, I live only a mile south of Lowell Ma (big city) and 15 miles north of Boston Ma..my night sky is total sky glow.. and i can barely see the brightest stars in the sky.. added to that fact all the extra holiday lighting was also in play while taking this image.. With the right gear, and patience,, you can acquire these types of images.. 1st thing you must say is..I can :) happy holidays and don't stop trying... cheers John Feel free to visit my website for other images..information Link Action: \| Ignore User
