    As it was the first clear night in nearly a month I took the opportunity to shoot out to the Green point ship graveyard near Bluff again as I’ve fallen in love with taking photos of these ships!

    This image is comprised of a blue hour foreground which was taken at iso 250, f9, 20s at 16mm and a tracked sky taken a little bit later on in the night which is comprised of 7x90s exposures iso 1600 anf f3.2 at 9mm.

    I was actually hoping for a nice shot of the carina and vela nebula but the night had other plans and gave me a massive aurora that was strong enough to show prominent curtains even after stacking 7x90s exposures.
