Arch In The Sky





Last night was a clear and transparent sky, when i looked up to the west I saw this pattern, an alignment of stars  Canopus, Sirius, Betelgeuse, Aldebaran, the Moon, Jupiter, and Venus(from left to right). You can see the light pollution coming from flood/nuke lights of a building construction site.





I decided to try a composite image, of a sequence as the grouping sets. took an exposure every 5 minutes for over 3 hours. The middle image was processed with every other frame removed. Which one do you think looks better?

Also made a very short, crappy time-lapse movie,Crappy time-lapse
