Reach for the stars

As promised , i will post some more.
Last night I was 54 km away from Oslo to the Observatory in hope to practice some more on my night photography. Just brought my Tokina 11-16mm Pro and was eager to test. Especially on this occasion of the Swift comet making it's appearance. I learned a lot from this evening even from all try and fails. Cause at the end , I was able to catch a star :)

An hour later , I was in my car just started to hit the road back home. When suddenly the sky lit up , as a brighter light was catching me from behind. And when it caught up with me like in 2 sec. I was able to this see big greenish firelight with long tale, crossing the sky on low altitude very fast passing me. I believe I may have lost that particular chance for a once in a life picture. Even thou , It inspires me to be ready for the next chance I will get.

This is my best effort from this evening. Some retouch was necessary.

thank you
As the Autumn is getting closer,it's less and less daylight and surely I'll be spending more time outside capturing the beauty of the night sky. Until then , I'll practice and read some more.
