Flying and falling objects in August night sky
Around 300 pictures were shot tonight for a total of 120 minutes. Falling stars (Perseids), airplanes (dotted lines) and satellites (thin white segmented lines) fly across the sky. Can you distinguish them? Click to enlarge
Below, at least 10 falling stars are present in this hi-res composite image of only 10 shots (airplanes almost excluded): can you find them? Click the picture to enlarge it (takes some time to download it, it is big), then click on the magnifying lens to zoom in!
Finally, a single shot of the brightest falling star tonight. On its left, the galaxy of Andromeda the Pleiades, click to enlarge
Pictures shot with D800 on a tripod mounting a 16-35 mm f/4 – ISO 1200-2000, exposure time 25 secs.
The fire bringers of Liestal Chienbäse: winter 2015 is over !
No mercy for winter 2015, driven away by fire from the streets of Liestal (Basel) during the traditional Chienbäse
Everything starts with a torch …
… to later give way to meters high chariots of fire
Fire advances through the main street of Liestal.
With pride and bliss the fire bringers walk
and run and shout to chase winter away!
At the end, all this fire is also good to grill a few sausages 🙂
Pictures shot at 3,200 ISO with D800 plus 16-35 mm f/4
