Does anybody know what this is? I shot it about 2 months back during a meteor shower. It looks like a galaxy to me, but I'm not quite sure. The 4 exposures range in time from 6-30 seconds.

Sure does look like a galaxy, or at least a nebula!

Surely is doesn't matter what people post does it?

You post your photos for feedback and can skip past the daft comments / photos

Of course it matters what other people post. The whole reason for coming to this community is because of what other people post.

How did you catch such a detailed photo of space? It does look like a galaxy

Nikon D90, 28mm f1.8 @ f1.8 and 6-30 seconds. I went out to an uninhabited area in the SF Bay area (click the image to view the map on flickr for the exact location) that is about as dark as you can get in the area.

I was shooting for meteors, but got this instead. I guess I'm happy with it, though!

I had made an active decision to stop posting in the Neowin Digital Gallery. I found issue with the fact that people would post images of scantily dressed women (which is fine), and that some of the users would follow with undignified comments that I felt did not belong on a forum in which art, ideas and critique were shared. I brought up the issue and nobody seemed to feel the same way, so I decided to stop sharing my images.

It has been quite some time since then, and with odd timing related to Guppy's post, about two weeks ago I decided to start posting here again. Since I "left" the Digital Gallery, I've started working a full time job and I'm 3/5 done with my MBA; as such, free time for photography is quite limited.

Now, for the image I came to post!

Well i'll admit, I spam "id hit that" any where and everywhere, followed by a serious comment though Seriously crazzy, even @ dpreview, you get lots of horny instagramers ! You do have a point though, but why quit posting on childish posts? there are ignore buttons you know!
Might wanna lay off capturing other galaxies or they might take you!!! Nice catch! I would've just discarded it as shutter blur or something alike. !

Ps and the same goes for you, STAY back

Cheers! I used the 17-40 L mostly at around 22mm as UWA + ND Grad holder = Not usable at the wide end

I've been tryin to get some night shots of the starts. I can't get the iso and shutter time right, but eventually i'll get there.
i had to tweak this one in photoshop (mostly blurred it to get rid of the noise),


also some of the stars are streaking, this is due to the shutter time being too long. i think it was maybe 15-20 sec in this pic.

thanks. no idea what you mean by "curtain synced" though, but i'll look it up

I usually just take random pictures of whatever i see that i think looks cool.
I've done some portraits for people that i may post on my s ite, not sure, but some of the other pictures i've taken can be found here
