[2262] Of my god, it’s full of stars

Nine months after my first visit to the Shrine of Remembrance in Melbourne, I found myself there again dead in the middle of the night. That has to tell you something about how I love war memorials.

What I like most about this picture is the stars. The small size of the picture does not do justice to the stars. I am working on that. I hope that some time in the near future, I will find a new template that I like that will allow me to post larger photos without messing everything up.

About that stars, I have never actually managed, or thought of, capturing them. I did not know it was possible with my camera and lens, until that night. The craziest thing is that I could not see most of the stars with my naked eyes when I was standing there doing 30-second exposures for nearly an hour.

Maybe, that says more about my vision than about my camera’s capability. Oh well…
