The big dipper

A night shot taken at Loch of Skene in Aberdeenshire, Scotland.

Taken on 12th August while out looking at the Perseid meteor shower. Unfortunately we did not capture any meteors on camera, but did manage some lovely looking long exposures.

This particular shot was 108seconds with the saturated colours coming from the ambient light in the distance and a head torch lighting the foreground.

Nikon D7000 ,Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6 EX DC HSM
