It is very cool ! And you got some star reflection on the edge

Yeah I tried to get a perfect mirror but the water wasn’t still and it blended them mostly into oblivion in every shot I tried :-/
two40zieks7 t1_j7bhrc4 wrote
Yea, I guess water has to be perfect for this to look good
theeternalpanda OP t1_j7bikox wrote
Yeah I can get it when I can do a 30sec+ shot to fully smooth it, like this 1min exposure.

But even at 8secs, stars have trails :(

Yeah, you need a rig to make your camera rotate at the same speed as the earth otherwise

That is Orion right above the palm tree. The 3 stars in a row are his belt and the stars forming a line to the right of it is his sword. The sword has the Orion nebula in it which is a stellar nursery about 5000 light years away and the only stellar nursery visible with the naked eye.

Very cool

This was really a treasure for me because my friend in Thailand had sent me a pic a few days before with the same sky :) it was fun to talk about and see how the geographic opposite side of the planet shares this incredible view

Thanks! Super lucky to get to see it all. I feel appreciative every day. The pics are me trying to help some people get an idea of what it was like to be there.

Still a great transition between night and day.

You could edit it in from the actual sky but I actually think it looms better this way!
theeternalpanda OP t1_j7cu6yx wrote
Yeah I tend not to even get too aggressive w the saturation slider, let alone cloning stars :) I’ll try again later. The perfect conditions will come
theeternalpanda OP t1_j7cueyo wrote
This one worked perfectly but Im not sure water counts as “earth” for this sub https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52670870255_16eb10a1d1_b.jpg
akusokuZAN t1_j7cvba4 wrote
Any shot that doesn't include humans, human-made objects or animals (but..but why?) is okay, so the way of water is okay too unless you're James bloody Cameron trying to make real water bubbles and CGI. If you are, shame on you!
akusokuZAN t1_j7cvllm wrote
Since star trails are a really expensive problem to solve (and stopping the Earth's rotation is too rich even for Jeff Bezos), you could easily tackle this without resorting to cloning by taking a 2nd shot - a longer exposure with much lower ISO for that tasty water reflection, and then combine the images :)
Oh and Topaz Denoise sends its regards.

Ooo thanks! Learning all the time

Honestly it's an amazing shot. The only part I dislike is the Palm Tree, haha.
Gatorinnc t1_j7dhs3p wrote
Thank you. I hope you are ok with me downloading and sharing your modified image. Stunning!

Go Gators indeed! BA & MA myself.
