The other evening was calm and clear, Erny suggested a wander around Grytviken to look at the stars and experience the ‘mood’ of the whaling station at night. I was only too keen to go too, and take a few photos while I was there. I wanted to have a play with something different to star trails and the milky way, and try to get some recognisable constellations and associate them with local features. I also discovered that the sometimes frustrating leading lights shed a new light on the machinery.
What superb pictures. The Southern Cross is quite difficult to pick out, although having seen it I did know what I was looking for!
ReplyDeletePerhaps you could highlight (or brighten) it's stars to help it stand out?
Great to see anyway :-)
