20050810 | Big Dipper || Canon 20d, Sigma 28-80 @ 28mm, 63 sec., f/5.6, ISO 800, © 2005, Rick Abbott Photography Wednesday, August 10, 2005: 

Astrophotography 101: I read an article on Canon's site that really got me interested in shooting the stars.  Its hard! I had to shoot dozens of different exposures to get one that looked decent. This is a pretty good shot (brag, brag) of the Big Dipper sitting low on the northern horizon. Exposure was just about a minute using remote trigger.
