I try not to repeat the same kind of image to much, let alone in a row, but I like the different colours and feel of the this image and the last two despite being the same scene from different angles and compositions. I like how you can see the different times I took these three photos on the tower clock. Also, that tower and the hotel is a 110 years old, not doing to bad at all.

Lovely clouds this evening, shame it was so windy making the wind chill a little to much to deal with.

Another evening of strong gusty winds, which made long exposures difficult to manage. So sadly the images and time lapse stuff from this evening were not all that sharp, and even with a Manfrotto Pro Geared tripod which weighs about 5kg with its head the camera still shook a little here and there making the stuff I shot useless. Still a few nice photos out of it though.

For most of these kinds of shoots I tend to take the same kit each time, variables being the lenses and tripod. I like to have a nice long lens like a 70-200mm, a 17-40mm, and some times a 12-24mm. I like to be as portable as possible so I tend to take a less than a medium weight tripod, but if it's windy I'll take a Manfrotto Pro Geared tripod as they weigh a good few kg more than my other one.

Okay, I've had enough of these star light trails. They look to over the top and unreal most of the time. The time lapse clip I did of this is okay, could be better. If I do it looking up through the trees perhaps it'll be better next time.

Finally got this shot right! Had focus problems so many times when I've been here, and trying to focus when it's so dark is a hassle! Looking at the shot image on the rear screen helps but really isn't giving you all the info. It might look sharp on a 3" screen but not in a video or print. Might have to come back with a tilt shift to correct the leaning to the right. But saying that after all the problems I've had focusing in the dark is a 24mm TS lens going to be an utter swine to get right.
