Wheel in the Sky


 
BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest Finalist   Wheel in the Sky
Wheel in the Sky
This is a 4.5 hour exposure at f2.8. It was taken in the Jemez mountains during the night of a cool clear night in October, just after a new moon. I used Fuji Reala 100 that may have helped bring out the scattered blue star light because of its extra cyan emulsion layer.

  Nice job, Steven - all it takes is to be away from those horrid city lights, and in an atmospherically clear area - and the Jemez Mtns are certainly that! Cool colors...

  Nice photo. I like the "wheels". I have been out there in the blistering cold for many years. But never captured this type of image. Very nice.

  Great photo! I can't help the sensation of just wanting to jump in and swim among the stars.
