STAR TRAILS OVER ANNAGHKEEN CASTLE This image of the North star over Annaghkeen Castle and house, along the shores of Lough Corrib, Headford, Co Galway, Ireland was taken by Conor Ledwith. The Castle was built in the 12th century by the DeBurgo family and is thought to be the oldest example in Ireland of a castle built entirely from undressed stone

Ledwith used a Canon 5Dii and Canon 16-35 lens. Camera settings were Iso 3200, f2.8 and about twenty minutes of stacked thirty second exposures. . A torch on the outside of the building and a flash on the inside were used to light up the building.The resulting image is a total of 48 images stacked to give the star trail effect. -TEL Image: Conor Ledwith https://www.facebook.com/pages/Conor-Ledwith-Photography/508733612472051 http://500px.com/conorledwith (with permission)
