(13,313 posts)8. I took a shot from Central CA. Sierra Foothills.
I couldn't see it with the unaided eye, but the camera seems to have gotten it.
20mm f/1.8 at 4 seconds, ISO 1000
Big Dipper at bottom left.
Image hosting and size reduction lose a bunch of image quality, Oh well.
Still a "catch" for this latitude, 37.5 degrees North.
The streaks are aircraft, no doubt. This is a busy air lane. I "healed" one out with its "flashenlights"
A house on the next ridge is a reference point.
