        ... ok.. I know next to nothing about photography... How does one get pictures like this http://tinyurl.com/4ydb9[^]. I assume that it is some form of time exposure or something like that.. but if so.. how come the tree doesn't appear blurred.... :confused::confused: Regards, Brian Dela :-) Now Reading: Code Complete 2ed[^] by Steve McConnell

          Good tripod and long exposures. Of course, with Photoshop you can put those stars in any picture if you wanted ;) Time exposures like that are also great for electrical storms only not quite as long of exposure.

Brian Delahunty wrote: but over here in Ireland, there is never no wind.... ever... Ah. We have some days where the only air movement is the convection currents created by the heat. And while those ultimately make for big storms, they move a tree not. Still though, you can't really resolve the tree leaves in that picture, so the leaves might be twitching around, but it's not often that you'll actually see branches moving unless there's a big blow.

                        If you actually read the text below the picture, you would have your answer. "29 images (each exposure was 1 minute) combined using Image Stacker. This is a synthesized half-hour exposure. The light on the underside of the trees is from a car that drove by while I was taking these images."
