Eight CCC members braved the cold on Sunday evening to have a go at night photography.It was a full moon night which made the taking of a few more of images of King's College from the Backs for a magazine article impossible so our best shots were from Garret Hostel Bridge where the moon was not in the frame. The first image shows the view towards Trinity - I love the way the Plough constellation (righthand side) is reflected in the water. This shot was taken 30secs, f8 iso 800. I also tried a long exposure (200secs ). This resulted in significant star trails as expected; to get the exposure where stars do not leave a trail divide 600 by (focal length of lens X crop factor). So for 16mm lens this is 37secs.
I also needed a picture of myself taking the shot - Phil obliged with this image.
