Star Trail over Durban

The plan was to create a star trail in an urban area to see if it is possible due to the fact that there is so much ambient light. Thanks to new technology, digital slr and Photoshop CS3 with its ability to create overlays.

The process took just over 2 hours, with an image taken every 35 seconds, exposure of 30sec at f2.8 with a 16mm fisheye lens on a nikon D300….


Below is the still image after being put through photoshop using overlays to produce a single image from the approximate 150 images taken.
