Lets go streaking


I am working nights now, 6 AM to 6 PM; so my days/nights off get pretty boring.  To fill my time I really only do one of three things: homework, read, or surf the interwaves.  One of my latest things I have been looking at online (not porn) has been a photography website called Liquid in Plastic. On his site he has a tutorial on how to do star streak photographs.  (and yes, I blatantly stole his idea for the title of this post.)  With the help of the liquid in plastic site, and also THIS SITE providing the very easy to use software I was able to make this star streaking picture.  This is one of my first tries, and I can think of a million different places to try this in SoCal, but the problem is obviously leaving your camera outdoors for two hours. 

And pay attention to the reflections in the window of the house, you can actually see where the stars had reflected off the window.

Let me know what you think, and just to add some impact to this whole mess, I stitched all the separate photos together to make a time lapse.  Pay attention to the window at about two seconds in the video.  You can see the light flick on, Amy must of gotten up to use the bathroom.  HA HA  Also at the very last second in the video, you can see an airplane streak by very quickly in the upper left frame of the video.
