The old barn

Thought this was Spad initially.
Apologies

No Apology needed. I've seen Spad's stuff so I'm flattered

A beauty, love this shot. Details on how you managed the photo please, if you don't mind.

Thanks. It's a composite of two separate photos. The foreground was taken mid afternoon on a cloudy day. There are gates that are locked at night, preventing access. The sky was shot using the astrotracer mk3 function about 3 miles away.

I've been wanting to do a light painted shot of the barn, with the milky way behind it for years. Unfortunately the lack of access at night and the fact that the town of Maidstone is just 3 miles to the south' with all of it's associated light pollution make that a real challenge.

I'm still planning to do a light painted shot at night if I can get access after dark.

Nowt to do with me!!

But it is just epic

Cheers Spad. After seeing some of your night and astro photo's I'll take that as a compliment

A well deserved POTW

Agreed!

POTW.... Pffft! That was no suprise!!! This had POTW written all over it

Well deserved too!

Congratulations on POTW

I wish I had taken this magnificent photo. What a gem.
