[Sl!m]

[zei20l]

how long are those exposures?? an hour??

[Sl!m]

I'd say it's a few minutes over a whole bunch of shots and then put together.. maybe?

[siddr20]

hahah i like your thinking..

how long are those exposures?? an hour??

I'd say it's a few minutes over a whole bunch of shots and then put together.. maybe?

They are 30 second exposures.. Took about 30-40mins worth and yea then bunched together like sam mentioned.

[zei20l]

ahh that explains why the house etc arent over exposed

[Passive]

You guys take some really cool photos

i REALLY need to crack open the manual on my camera, start messing around and learning how to use it properly!!!

Then i can put up some nice pics too >.>

Sunset shots look great, Zennon!

You coulda borrowed mine Sidd but I just sold it on Ebay.. I'm getting the 15mm 2.8 Fisheye. Was gunna get the 17-40f/4L or the 16-35 f/2.8L but I have decided on the fisheye for the effect.

[Xmetal]

My Star trail shot I took last year was done with a Fisheye lens but it was on the 350D so the crop cancels a lot of the barrel distortion out.

Gonna do another re-shoot as soon as my new camera lands.

I bought an EOS 1Ds MkII yesterday.

[Lepperfish]

Xmetal, where'd ya get the EOS 1Ds MkII from an how much?

[siddr20]

Lepperfish - Ah thats ok!! i will eventually buy it one day. Be sure to post up pics from your fisheye
