The view from Black Pine Road in western Montana – looking south towards the Anaconda Mountains on a cloudy, windy fall afternoon. Panorama created from six exposures. (And it was not easy getting six steady shots with the wind blasting across this open ranch land!)

I woke up around 2am today. Decided to wander outside and what did I see? The first clear night in weeks! Time to practice my night sky photography. Did a series of long exposure shots (30 seconds, ISO 800, f/3.5) but could not get the focus right. This is one of the hardest things for me about shooting the night sky. Auto-focus doesn’t work, you can’t see anything through the viewfinder, and your focus has to be perfectly on infinity. Anyway, after 40 minutes of trying in 32 degree weather I gave up. Looked at my blurry star shots and thought “Hey! What if I merge all of these exposures?” This is the result. I think I like it better than the properly focused night sky shot I was trying to get. I hope you like it – now I’m going back to bed.
I like to go to Mukilteo State Park to work on my panorama skills. This image was created from 18 exposures.
