Description

I wanted to make this photo by technical challenge, but also to show that it is still possible to take pictures (in visible light) of the stars of a city center polluted by light (and moreover pollution with fine particles that evening).

This is achievable without any filter, but for this shot, and to optimize the result I used a Hoya Starscape pollution reducing filter.

For the technical data:
Nikon 24-70 f2.8 lens closed at f/4.
Focal length: 24mm
Sensibility: 200 iso
360x20s (2 hours)

Note: Forgetting to bring on the ground the lens sunshade:-(

To be improved:
Record the motion of the stars over an even longer period of time, for example 3 hours.
