I convinced my brother to drive out to manning park (about 4 hours outside vancouver, bc) with me last week to shoot some star trails. we've had unusually clear skies here this summer and wanted to take advantage.
everyone was asking me before I left "but where are you actually going to take photos?" (considering the hwy drives over 50km through the park).
I always responded "Ill just stop when I see a good spot".
Turns out I forgot how dark it gets a night...
thankfully I stumbled onto this amazing spot!
c&c welcome. I really like the colours of the trees and creek, however I can't decide if i should fix the verticals so the trees on the left side of the image aren't leaning in so much. thoughts?
one 1970 second exposure.

ps, the blur along the top of the images is the milky way moving through the scene as well.
