Sunday 21st October 2012

Not much walking today, just a fern from Port Mooar and fungus from Point of Ayre



 
 
 
This evening Chris and I decided to go out and see if we could capture some night skies. We weren't aiming for star trails - more pictures that showed lots of stars. As the sun was setting, the sky was almost cloudless so, as the sun went down we set off.
 
First stop, the wind blown trees at Baldwin, above Injebreck. When we first arrived, the stars were just starting to show but, it was still too light for star pictures. Enough time to decide on the best angle for pictures (avoiding the lights of Douglas and the very bright moon) and set up.
 


After some time, we decided to head to Montpelier Plantation in Druidale for a few more pictures



And so, we headed home to edit and warm up!
