I'm just starting in night / astro. Signed up for a workshop in a couple of weeks but wanted to get a feel for it beforehand. Lot of trial and error, but think I got some decent shots for a beginner. #2 shows faint Milky Way - moon was just about to rise. Red light in window is not light painting, it was on inside the building. Does anybody know if there is any significance to leaving a light on at a Coast Guard station? May just be an exit sign or something. I still can't believe how much ambient light you can pull in with a 20-25 sec exposure.

I really like #2 with the faint Milky Way showing and the light from inside the building. You are definately on the right track for night/long exposure photos.

Nice start. I haven't started to try milky way shots yet but am tempted.

Three very nice shots. The coast guard station is the stand out of this group in my humble opinion.
