I went to see a big rock and all I got was 128 photos of a big rock 🪨✨📷

During an after hours tour, I snuck away to set up the camera in the quiet spot. Uluru-Kata Tjuta national park is otherwise closed between sunset and sunrise.

This needed rather a lot of work to fix and replace overexposed foregrounds courtesy of traffic and a TV crew with flood lights (!!!) but I think it turned out okay. Next holiday in that direction must be during a new Moon.

Die Mittagspausensichtung der Aufnahmen von heute Nacht ergab: keine Perseiden. Ich kann aber vermelden, dass die Erde sich noch immer dreht.

(Was der helle Strich von rechts oben nach links unten im unteren linken Drittel des Bilds ist kann ich nicht sagen. Was es auch immer war: es war langsam, da es auf sechs 15 Sekunden Frames zu sehen war. Durch das Blending ist ein guter Teil der Erscheinung ausgewaschen worden.

And finally that finished #startrail practice.
Obviously those are often shot towards Polaris in the Northern hemisphere.
Although loking at this... it seems to be not just for the cool spiraling effect, but because the Galactic Centre makes the whole thing look wonky. XD
