About a year ago, during fall, we have decided to visit Wabamun Marina at night and see if we could get any nice shots. It was rather a cool night, so we have spent there just enough time to make a try at creating a star trail picture and a few other shots around.

Stars and galaxies... oh my!
Another warm cloudless starry night. Another opportunity to try my fisheye lens. So off I went to the special dark spot at Elk Island National Park. This area is quiet, and mostly traffic free. Not this time. Even at 1am I had 3 vehicles pass by my spot, which made my worried that my star trails will suffer. Luckily I think the red tail light trails add to the photo. I guess you be the judge. I have to say, I really enjoy these little quiet trips to the park at night. Yes it is a spooky place sometimes, but over all, it's silent and calming. Great place to lay on the ground, look up at the vastness of the sky, and let your mind drift among the stars. Enjoy.
