Wonder Lies Sleeping... Startrails Version
I thought it might be interesting to go back to Garie Lookout and do a startrails version of Wonder Lies Sleeping ‘Neath a Mantle of Light. If you missed the original it’s here:
The line running through the bottom left is a plane – couldn’t get rid of it without making a big hole in my startrails. This image is a composite of 51 X 30 second exposures using the brilliant schursastrophotography photoshop action here:

Also I’ve written a little story to go with it if you haven’t already read it:

Suck a cool effect Geoff, the town in the background gives an awesome sense of balance and scale to the piece.

I’ve never been told to suck a cool effect before Rhana – you should be in advertising for iceblocks lol. Thanks for your lovely comment anyway.

A wonderful result, Geoff! You really have to go out after midnight to get rid of those plane trails, I guess?
Geoff Coleman... replied
Thanks Mel – yeah even then you get the odd curfew breaker – total bummer being next to the airport except for my timelapses where the planes look cool.
