Are those palm trees I see? Lucky.
Great photos to introduce yourself with and looking forward to seeing more. The light trails, star effect, and colour in the third is great

By the way.. welcome to TPF!

Fantastic time lapse shots!! Great color and exposure, welcome to the forum from another noob............

I like #3 best as well.

thanks...... yeah they are palm trees.....friggin things are everywhere

I'll trade you some for.............lol

I just realized im getting interesting star effects because of the number of vertices on my diaphram 50mm vs the 18-55mm lens........... I think that makes sense

Quite impressive.
Welcome to ThePhotoForum, Thorhammer. Nice way to come and introduce yourself with!

I saw the first and thought "Wow!"
I then scrolled to the second and thought "Even wow-er"
Then I came to the third and ... COOL!
