Dancing Lights πŸ’ƒπŸ»πŸͺ©πŸ•ΊπŸ»

I managed to snap about two hours of 10 second images from a dry lake last night, between 10pm and midnight.

This is all of them compressed into a time lapse, with the stars rotating around the south celestial pole.

Other than the horizon being weirdly bright and there being a *hint* of a vertical pillar from time to time, this was pretty much not naked eye visible.

Nikon D750, ISO8000, Nikkor 14-24 F2.8 lens at 24mm f/4, 553 x 10s.

Great job on the time lapse and noise reduction! I enjoy astronomy and science fiction but following a time traveler who joined Mastodon in 2038 was not on my bingo card. Truly one of the best arguments in favour of self-hosting.
@danielscher Heh-heh. You will be the first person who will have noticed that.
