Milky Way Bow over the Yorkshire Dales

Milky Way Bow over the Yorkshire Dales
Taken just outside the town of Richmond. My first bow! Not too sure if the white line is an aeroplane or 'shooting star. A dark night but the lights of Richmond town shown on here too.

A big thanks to my photo mate Steve Paxton for his help and tips in producing this.

Füsun, nice to see your real name at last and delighted that you too enjoy this photo which is a new venture for me. (I needed a lot of help from Steve Paxton -above to re-create it though.)
Best wishes, Herb

Hi Herb,

Great technical skill as ever! It is very rare to see this kind of thing in England, never mind photograph it. I am very impressed!!

I've tried sky shots, and seen meteors, but they are never bright enough to register on the image sensor. Satellites go much slower across the sky, but I will keep an open mind on your streak!

Best Wishes
Peter

Good to see you here Peter and my apologise for this late reply. Like you I have not seem very many Milky Way shots from here but there are some, especially from people living in our dark sky spots such as the very NE England and many parts of Scotland. This was taken with my very wide 10mm lens and consist of about 10 portrait photos stitched together. Each exposure was for 10 full seconds with another 10-20secs camera noise reduction time thrown in. This final stitch was done with the software: PTGui. I thought the streak to more likely an aeroplane but my friend Steve (above) thinks a satellite.

All the Best for the Season my friend, Herbert
