Startrails at White Strand Beach, Doonbeg

This is four exposures stacked, using software from startrails.de. I got a bit of flare from somewhere in the top-right corner, I must remember to put the lens hood on in future.

Nice work Yann. How long were the exposures?

Thanks Kevin. Three of them were 30 minutes, and the last was about ten.

Interesting. I’ve only tried this once but I’ve been meaning to give it another go. I stacked about a hundred 30s exposures but it meant that the trails weren’t as smooth as yours. Any issues with noise over the 30 mins?

Ah but your photo (the dolmen one) was incredible. I think the shorter exposures is the proper way to do it, but I was far too lazy – I was busy drinking beer in between shots
I have to say I’ve never really noticed long-exposure noise – there may be some there but I don’t find it affects the image much.
