Shooting stars in the backyard.

I got instantly inspired after looking through a friend's recent gallery of the Milky Way made someplace 45mins from home. With a very simple set-up, Sam managed to put into pictures what I had in mind to do for a while now. Getting the right sky is rather tricky, last night was rather clear, so I gave it a shot ... well, let's just say a few.





Not great pictures, but now I'm positive it could be done with merely the tools I already own: a digital camera, a tripod and cable release. One of these nites, the cloud's going to clear up and the heavens will reveal itself sparkling unto me.
