It was great to be back home and out with my camera again on Friday evening, I met up with Andy and we went out for the sunset then headed into the woods near Surprise View for a spot of Light Painting. This was the last image we took finishing with a Star Trail shot, to create this shot I got Andy to stand directly below the Pole Star and had set up my BLF Q8 torch with a blue gel on a tripod about 12 meters directly behind him. Then all I had to do was open the shutter move over to the torch and gave a 6 second burst then let the star trail build up over the next 1 hour 45 minutes.(Olympus EM-1 Mkii 7-14mm f-2.8 pro 40 secs Live Composite over 1 hour 45 minutes f-2.8 @ 7mm) with Andrew Mycock
