Re: [APML] New Leonid Meteor Storm Picture

Jerry,

Nice shot(s).  I really like the look of guided meteor shots.
Much more natural looking and the meteors stand out better.
I stuck with star trails as my sky's were just too mucky to
drag the g-11 out.

At first, I was surprised to see how little (if any) the trees trailed.?
But then I saw your previous post explaining what you did.
Nice work laying the trees back in.

I recently played around w/ PS layers and
ended up laying a full moon into a 40min pleides shot.  It turned
out pretty cool.  It's by no means an accurate representation of
films dynamic range..but.. It's nice to see the moon among the stars.
