Well done James - so how long did you stay "out there" to capture this?
James Fitzgerald  Hi Kevin, All told I was there for about 2 Hours. (for a ten minute exposure, ha.)
The exposure on the sky isn't quite right, but I wanted to show the shooting star above the rocks on the left.

The hardest part really, was trying to acquire focus and framing the image in the dark. I couldn't see well enough with my old camera to manually focus, so a friend used a spotlight on the rocks for me to autofocus.

James Fitzgerald  Thanks Wulff, I would have wished to have just a tiny bit more sky.
I discovered how difficult it is to compose at night. :)
