this is a long exposure from up ontop of the local viewing tower, it's freezing, shaking and illegal at 2am... but i'm still surprised with the outcome of the star trails.

exposure index: 800
developing: Diafine 3+3 min (Galon mix in 2.5L)

filter: none
camera: Zensa Bronica S2A

Well said and exposured to set it to a context. Hard to see that it is a twon that's glowing that much. Star's track really look amazing.

thanks, i drove through closed roads and climbed up a huge shaking tower, froze my butt off and waited for an eternity for this shot... i really wanted to over expose the town, and was surprised how strong it came out. the original negative has at least 2x as many stars on it!

Nice star trails. The clarity is great.

Is that a small town or a city that's glowing like that?

it's a REALLY small town, heavily overexposed in mist and fog.
