     Like how they turned out for the most part. Main issues with the second and the last. Greens are way to heavy in the second, going to go with a less saturated film in overcast weather next time and the blur on the last is heavy enough that it's a bit hard for me to look at, should have used a smaller aperture.

Click the images to view them on a black background (easier on the eyes). Solstician Belt of Venus OK, well, not precisely on Solstice, but, it'll do. Captured within minutes of the sun disappearing, the beautiful Belt of Venus over the horizon, heralds the onset of nightfall. The long exposure has subdued large splashy waves, a few minutes before high tide. Made somewhere along a lovely spot on the southern coast of NSW. Canon EOS 5D Mark II, Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L USM 3.2s f/16.0 at 17.0mm iso400  The Gates of Dusk Lake Wanaka and its environs are like something out of a fantasy dreamscape. I was on my way back from a tiring trek through Rob Roy Glacier, which was somewhat of a disappointment as there were very little photographic opportunities due to weather. When this fiery spectacle appeared before me, the disappointment of the uneventful and long day vanished in an instant. An unexpected reward for a failure. Love it.

Flew Illinois > Hawaii and I had a window seat. Also, is it just me or is the new Flickr a total piece of poo poo to link from? I had to right-click and go to properties and copy the image url instead of just selecting the box at the bottom of the page and hitting copy. Is that still there and I just missed it?

You can still get the url by clicking on the button that says share this at the top of the image and selecting grab the link. It's probably not that much faster than your method though, I don't really know why they changed it.

I think the second one works with the low-fi aesthetic best. Intriguing as always. --

If it exists, it needs to be made more obvious (You can click "Share this" and get the URL for the page, but not a direct link to the picture) Hoping for a new greasemonkey script to be made soon.

It's small enough to always have in my backback and on that particular trip, I only had an ultrawide zoom for the dslr so the little extra reach came in handy.

How wide is that lens Dread Head? Distortion sticks out in the second one the most for me.

Personally it doesn't bother me much in those photos, or in many landscapes. Only looks weird to me when it warps things like buildings or other clearly straight lines.

I recently took a road trip up Hwy 101, along the CA, OR, and WA coasts. Unfortunately, I didn't have the photo time I wanted, but I did manage to click off a few. These are all from Oregon. (drat, just noticed the rotate crop on this first one)

I've been taking my camera on a lot of camping trips lately and want to get into more star and star trail photography but I could really use some tutorials to get me started. Does anyone have a link to some good write-ups on star photography? exposure times, aperture, ISO, etc. These are a few I took a few weeks back. The first is of the moon coming up over the lake we camped on. The second is all lit by campfire in the foreground and moonlight in the background.

This is a pretty good book on night photography. It's not solely dedicated to stars, but it has a section on it. Check it out at a bookstore to see if it's what you're looking for.

Here's a Photoshop action that I've used, and I reckon anyone that does stacking of star trails knows of its existence. As far as shooting the individual frames for the stack: wide aperture, high-ish ISO, and longish shutter, but not so long as to need a timer remote. Schur (on the site above) recommends 15-30s, and that seems about right from what I've done as well.

drat, this thread has some really great landscapes. Dread Head and octane2, you guys have pretty consistently good/great shots. Haven't posted a shot here for years, so I guess I'm gonna post some black & whites (and a 4-shot HDR) Kearsarge Lake(s), CA after sunset. Dodged/burned a bunch. I feel like I have too little foreground, I guess, but I do like the shot overall.  Spanish Banks, British Columbia. 13 second exposure, I think I used my lens cap as a ghetto in-camera mask to keep the sunlit areas from being completely gone (if not in this shot, then in a few of the other ones from this session for sure). Quadtoned, dodged/burned, then masked a curves layer into the lower half of the horizon to make the highlights lighter.  Alouette Lake, BC. Went there hoping for a sunset, weather turned to poo poo, decided it was still apropriate enough for black & white shots. As with most of my b/w shots, a bunch of dodging/burning happened.  Another one from the same day at Alouette Lake. This was taken when it was almost pitch-black. It's a 211 second exposure. The hike back to the parking lot was fun since I didn't have a flashlight.  This is the 4-shot HDR. Alouette Lake again, on a different day. The weather was almost as poo poo, until the sun decided to rear its head for like 10 minutes.
