With 3 or 4 seconds you might have salvaged a bit more detail in the Swiss
campers, themselves, but I think you'd lose the lovely light on the trees.
(Unless, of course, your wizard enough to blend 3 shots. I'm certainly not.)
However you did it, it's a bloody fine image.

On a tripod, camera did not move. Just blended the exposure. At 30it were.
seconds, the fire was just too much. I tried to bring out some detail
on the 30s one, but looked pretty bad. I was able to work much better
with the
8 second shot. Should probably have shot at 4 or 3 seconds too. Live
and learn.

Now, Aram... when you say a separate shot, were the two shot from a
tripod, without moving it between shots? Just the exposures blended, as
himself
Or was the sky a completely different shot, blended into the black sky
of the fire & people shot?
Curious minds want to know!
David.
Using the 16-35 Nikon. For this shot it was 20mm, f-4.0, 30 sec.
The fire is a separate shot at 8 sec, then blended.

Hi Aram!
Nice shots of the VLA. But the winner is the star shot with your
Swiss campers. Beautifully done!
Without knowing the focal length, it is impossible to guess the
shutter speed based on the length of the start-trails (very short but
each arm being 13 miles.
So, I'll ask. What focal length were you using?
Tnx.
David.
Just outside Socorro, New Mexico, is the Very Large Array. We werethat they were in the D configuration. That means the 27
lucky
radiotelescopes were bunched close together around the visitors
center. This is when they are looking for lower resolution overall
structure images. The A configuration is when they are spread out
with
You would get to see very few of them close enough to the visitors
center to photograph.
