Description
I used various combinations of "twirl-distortions" on the summer milky way to create this Van Gogh-like Starry Night rendition of a prior image in my collection.
Prior image narrative follows:
_________________________________
While up in ND helping with harvest, I went to a nearby abandoned barn (south of Leeds) to shoot some nightscapes.
While shooting this shot (a series of six 30 second exposures using a fisheye lens for full-sweep of milky way), I heard a rustling sound behind me, which gave me a bladder-strength test, as I had been hearing coyotes howling pretty frequently! I slowly turned around to face my "enemy", lit my flashlight, and there was a skunk, 🦨 with tail held high in the air, contemplating whether to waste its scent on this intruder to its domain. We had a 30 second staredown, after which it decided to save its perfume, and it turned and wandered away. What a relief!
Image captured 9/9.
