Night Skywatch



Last week I read about the Skylink satellites that were going to be seen in the night sky, good opportunity I think to get some photos at night. Now this is something I have not down in a while so a little trial & error ensued.







Well that is the result from my back garden, as you can see the light pollution is terrible but then considering there are housing estates and towns nearby they came out ok. I intend to get some more when I get back to Wales where the is less pollution but I think that will be a little time yet. I did see the satellites on a few occasions but missed getting a photo. 
Never mind Stay Safe
Happy Skywatch

I think your photos turned out well. I have no idea how to get night photos and I love to see what others can produce. The sky is beautiful in all it's forms.

Very good night photos. I've heard about the satellites and I dread how they will change the night sky. But oh well.

You have to spot them and they are not easy. OK for astronomers to complain but most people will not notice
