My first attempt

While camping this weekend thought I'd try my hand at some stars.
A little more light from neighboring campsites than I had hoped, but think it turned out well for my first attempt.

Nice for the first time and you can see Andromeda.

Thanks... I was just hoping to get a decent shot of the Milky Way. Have no idea where Andromeda is, but now I have to research it. LOL

Nice shot 308shooter well done is that a shooting star or a plane just above the trees

Thanks for the compliment.

It's a plane just above the trees.... There's another one higher up in the photo, that I actually didn't see while taking the shot. I'm assuming it was a plane as well.

It's between the top of the 2nd tree on the right and the satellite line above it. A little bit of a bright swirl.

Nice job for your first time. It's gets to be addicting

Indeed it does.. just waiting on my next camping trip and hoping I'm further away from lights....

Thanks for the kind words.
