Impressed it handled the subtle color of the green sweater. A lot of lenses would have blown that one.

Re: Fun with D800 Photos

Here's one of my first trys at shooting the night sky...this one shot at the Firehole Ranch, west of West Yellowstone, Montana one very dark night. I started out just guessing on settings and this was shot with my D800e with the 14-24 lens at 14mm at f 2.8, wide open, 30 seconds at iso 1000. Eleanor
ps: there is a solid line just to the left center of the Milky Way..since this didn't come across as a dotted line (i.e.: lights on plane) I'm assuming this might be a shooting star. any other ideas??

Eleanor,

Could be a satellite, tho' doesn't look bright enough for the ISS.

There are sites listing satellite movements. Start with NASA.

Cheers,

Tough situation but look at the colors, pretty dang good.
...and somehow its also rather "roomy", more than the Nikkor glasses I think, and rich/saturated colours too it seems, but not too much, a more harmonic, allthough strong, colourbalance perhaps.

Thanks Gondolfi, actually someone on Facebook send me a link to the Satellite schedules. I will have to take a good look at that! eleanor

Satellites would need to illuminated by the sun and would record in an exposure while your are near dusk or dawn--even if the sky is quite dark. Around midnight, you will not see satellites. Shooting stars change brightness as they burn up leaving a trail with thinning ends and a brighter/fatter center.
