"Raven’s Roost Overlook, near Lyndhurst Virginia" by Malcolm MacGregor PhotographyDate Taken: 05/31/2014
Location: Raven’s Roost Overlook, near Lyndhurst Virginia
Raven’s Roost Overlook at Night

Camera: Canon 5d Mark iii
Lens: Canon 16-35 2.8L ii
Focal Length: 16
ISO: 1600
Shutter: 1.5 Hours
Aperture: 2.8
Filters: None
Exposure: Manual
How I Got This Shot: The tree is lit with a flash, fired several times manually during a 30 second exposure. I then take 30 second exposures constantly for about 1.5 hours. The files are then “stacked” in post processing, allowing us to see the motion in the stars.
