------------------------------------
An incredible night that I will never forget, spent under the Milky Way at Mupe Bay in Dorset.
The secluded bay sits just east of Lulworth Cove and is one of the best places in Dorset for astro photography and long exposures. I nearly stayed at home, but changed my mind at the last minute, and how glad was I!!! After a couple of hours of sleep under my DD tarp, the grey clouds gave way to beautifully clear skies. I spent the early hours taking pictures of the Milky Way, before the sun rose and I made the long walk back to my van.
A special evening that will take some serious beating.
I hope you enjoy the video.
All the best.

[@gedheaton1415]

loved it, cracking adventure mate. I assume you blanked with the rod ? 😀

[@coasttocountry]

Cheers mate. It was a blank but I only had a few chucks. Probably would have had more success on the wrasse

[@hashtagger8694]

Good video.
just wondering if you have to use a star tracker with 20 second exposures?

[@coasttocountry]

Hi there. Thankyou very much. No I don't use a star tracker, although I have always wanted to. I bet you get some amazing results ☺
