These I took on Sunday from a place from my past. I use to be a bit of a bum in my younger days. After my father died I moved back home to look after mom. I use to walk the woods around Warfield, BC regularly (well daily) got to know it very well. So this weekend I decided to go back in time. This is what I remember the most, stuff like this around every corner, 5 miles from home.

I cant get any images to appear in the folder palette. I drag a file up to my favourites, when I click on it, nothing happens, says there is no images there. I tried again with a deferent file, same thing.
What am I doing wrong or not doing.
I have had NX2 for a couple years now just never got into it this much. More I learn the more I like it!!
Anybody got any suggestions.

How about telling us the outcome of this-- camera damage -- black-eyes-missing teeth.
That is pretty cool.

I am selling a new Sigma15-30mm3.5-4.5 DG Aspherical lens- Nikon mount. It has taken 2 pictures. I got in an insurance claim over 4 years ago, put it away and forgot about it. Looking for something else the other day and found this hidden away and remembered it. Its a shame for this to be sitting doing nothing and Im sure someone can put it to good. I looked, on Amazon they had 3 the best one was new used at $390.00, as mine is in perfect condition used twice I would like $450 cnd- exchange rate now is a little over a penny today. If I get what I want Ill pay the shipping, Canada Post about $30- 3-5 days delivery. Will consider offers.

Thanks all you're response and your fixes are great, won't go unforgotten
Thanks all

Hi fellow Canuck, I did this quite a bit with my F4s, but that was a while back. it's pretty easy. First find some place dark, no city lights. Set your camera on a tripod, I use to point the camera at Polaris, the North Star, with a cable release I'd lock the shutter open and go have a few beer.
When I thought it was long enough I'd close the shutter and point the camera some place else and do it all over again. Got some pretty neat stuff. A big bonus is if you can get an airplane, satellite or a meteor pass by, bigger bonus of coarse would be a ufo but good luck with that.
as for which lens, I believe anyone that you have will work, just set the focal length for what you want to cover. As for aperture if I remember right I would use around f8, but might be wrong. This is a good place to experiment, it's not a one time thing, the stars have been there for 14 billion years and I'm sure they'll be there tomorrow night.
A moonless night is also a good thing unles you want to shoot the moon. hope this helps, and don't be afraid to show us how you did, and keep looking up.

To labour intensive, I'd make sure the battery was fully charged and lock the shutter open. And keep track of what your settings are and adjust from there. what I also use to do was multible exposures. Camera on a tripod, didn't change the settings on the camera. This was with the a full moon, can't remember the times but I'd shoot the first one wait 10 minutes shoot that one wait 5 more miutes, shoot another then divide the time in half shoot again, again divide the time in half again shoot again and then for the final shot I'd leave the shutter open for a couple minutes and I'd get what looks like the moon speeding up, it was cool, wish I could find them. The key here was don't advance the film or the frame.
Play it's fun

That I don't know, I have never done it with my digital stuff. All I can say is you have to keep the shutter open, be it the B setting but you will need some kind of cable release. Hope some one can help you with your Canon, I'm Nikon. I would like to help more but I have an appointment with a riverbank, some fish are waiting for me.
