Stars night out

A trip to the Yorkshire Dales gave me the opportunity to have my first attempt at star trails outside this pub in Buckden.

With vitually no light pollution I took 60, 30 second shots on the tripod and blended them together to create the star trails and then did a 2 minute exposure of the pub, whilst pop flashing the front with colour flash gels.

Then it was just a case of blending that in with the star trails shot to come up with this. Having the north star above the pub was just a bonus
