"Mustard shitters" is the nickname for people living in Diest (read Wikipedia). Don't ask my why, I don't even want to know...

You can find the gallery also on my zenfolio-website. It presents larger versions (up to 1400px) and also gives technical information (number of images, ISO, that kind of stuff). All images presented are composites.










Thank you for looking.

Great shots, always love your "star-rotations" Wink

How do you shoot there ? f22 in bulb enough ? or do you use extra grey-filters to make shutter speed extra long ?

Cheers
Tobias

The star trails are 15s, ISO800 and f/4 but the buildings are overexposed.
The buildings are 15s, ISO800 and f/11 but the stars are underexposed.
Merge these two and you have well exposed star trails and buildings.


To make star trails, I stack the images in PS. In this case, I made 90 images for the star trails (i.e. a bit more then 20min). I open all 90 at the same time, making them different layers. I than merge the 90 layers in Lighten modus. And voila, star trails.
There is a lot of post-processing involved in the star trail image, but there is no other way Smile

It's quite an area over there, you know... If you go north, you enter the Kempen (*cough*); if you go to the east, you enter Limburg (*cough**cough**cough*) and the other directions will lead you into the Moron Triangle (Debielendriehoek). Perhaps mustard shitter is not too bad after all Smile

Nice images. As there's so much work involved in post, wouldn't it be quicker to just draw some trails in? Laughing
