David's Images of the Day Photoblog
Star and jet trails looking north and south from my deck. Raw images processed with Capture One Pro, and the composite created using Photoshop CC (scripts, statistics, maximum).

Late Fall Night Sky and Leonid Meteors Trail over New Jersey. Composite of two images taken with a Nikon D4 camera and 14-24 mm f/2.8 lens (ISO 100, 14 mm, f/2.8, 1 min).
Backyard night sky with moon-lit clouds moving in. Orion is partially hiding. Images taken with a Nikon D2xs camera and 17-35 mm f/2.8 lens (ISO 100, 17 mm, f/2.8, 6 sec).
After arriving at Haines, Alaska we disembarked from the MV Columbia. I could have slept in the RV, but decided to splurge and spend the night at the Halsingland Hotel (B&B). They even put benchmarks in the ground to mark the location of hotels in Haines — 118 feet above mean sea level. I set a camera up looking out my window to capture night sky star trails. I also managed to capture Northern Lights which I was not expecting.
