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 series, you're doing great.
Warning, this is a very addictive and expensive hobby! But man, is it fun!!
I like the third one the best.
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.
Beautiful shots, repleo! I love the Milky Way!
