    June 30/July 01 2011. Not only did this memorable clear sky evening produce a stunning star trail but also a bright meteor brushing past the Ursa Major (The Plough/Big Dipper) constellation. Bear in mind this is captured with a 8mm fisheye lens which ordinarily would produce a dim scratch for the average meteor. This was super bright. Bring on the August Perseids :-)
    July 24/25th 2011. Close up star trail using the 12-60mm SWD lens. 15s exposures (approx 900) F2.8 ISO 300 and stacked. Great for detail :-) Captured with Oly E3. Boy is it noisy when compared to the E5 even at low ISO.
