Sky from Ground

Nothing much today. Meh morning; no photo. Dark evening; photo of seats on the train.

Srsly...

So, when the stars were shining clearly as I walked home from the railway station, I decided to pop the camera down on the ground, and click it on a 12" timer. This was wide open, as at 135mm one can't have much of an exposure before stars begin to move - this was right on the edge. There is coma, but I was surprised at how little, being wide open - and compared say to my Sigma 35mm if I don't stop that down.

Fickr it.
