Description

Inspired by a picture of the region around Polaris that I saw from Björn Hoffmann on AB, I had the idea to photograph Polaris for several hours. I have now reached 8 hours, the goal is 20 hours. Now I am sad because I did not own a LP filter for my Nikon. I think the result would have been even better.
