markhumpage > Feb 06 2009. It was so bright out tonight. A great op for lomg exposures and some star trail work. It has taken me all night to stack these in high quality res with PS. Original file size is just over 3 Gig!!!! Two hours worth of trails 15s exposure every 60s. Why 15s in every 60s?.....My cock up, should have been 60s in every 60s. However I have learned a useful lesson in keeping exposure time short. Noise is relativley low on 15s and light pollution is not blowing out the scene.
Olympus E3, 7-14mm, ISO 100, 15s, f4
markhumpage > The lunar eclipse of 3rd March 2007. Saturn is the closest planet (approx 4 o'clock) whilst I forget what the bright body is at 7 o'clock). Possibly Jupiter or Venus.
Olympus E1, 90-250mm, f2.8, 1s
markhumpage > This montage has taken me a year to complete. Amazing how patient one has to be for the right phase and clear skies. Perigee moon in centre

All taken with my Olympus E3 dslr and the stunning 90-250mm glass & x2 TC.
markhumpage > January 2005 captured with Olympus E1 on the A14 Leics/Northants border. Head and tail lights, full moon added in PS.
markhumpage > An interesting perspective of a normal monochrome subject.

If you observe some features on the moon there are tiny differences in the hues of the various greys of the surface, as there are many different geological formations composed of different minerals. These mineral colours can be represented and enhanced afterwords by digital processing which allow us to see it.

This nearish full phase was captured with the Olympus E3, 90-250mm lens & x2 TC (1000mm effective focal).

Colours were added via layers/saturation in PS.
