Davis Lake Star Trails

Davis Lake Star Trails

This was my first attempt at long exposure star trails while backpacking through the Eastern Sierra Nevadas. Davis is one of my favorite lakes in the Sierras to photograph, even dispite the MILLIONS of misquitos that inhabit the many meadow ponds around the area. I was covered from head to toe except my hands to take pics, and ended up with almost 20 bites on each hand. f/3.5 10 mins ISO 200

    Never tried to capture star trails myself. Great work Nolan! Great reflections and exposure. (BTW – Are you sure those are not mosquitoes with their headlamps on??? :) Sorry I could not resist!)

    Well composed and love that funky greenish feel to it. Great work on the stars splashing different colours throughout.

    hmm – this is definitely interesting; star trails? Long exposure? Does that mean slow shutter speed?
