Earth Hour 2010 at National Planetarium

There was a small event held at the National Planetarium yesterday in conjunction to the Earth Hour, to raise public awareness on light pollution.

#1 Couple at Earth Hour 2010


#2 Moonlights, starlights and candlelights... but not streetlights.


#3 The hill where the planetarium located was covered in smooth moonlight.


#4 Orion in blue sky - my favourite of the lot.

Cloudless South

A rare cloudless midnight is so irresistible for a star trails shot, despite that I was on a sleeping debt.

Stacked from 365*20s, that's 2+ hours of mechanically clicking the remote shuttle release button. Not much of fun.

The result is some what OK. I have no idea what's caused the wave-like pattern in the middle of trails. I might have pressed the blower too hard when blowing the camera during shooting.

Anyway, it's still nice that I can do that without stepping out from my house.
