Blimey, where's this year going? Has it really been that long since I last wrote something on here?

I have a constant list of photographs I'd like to get one day and getting some shots of The Milky Way has been hovering around the top of that list for some time now, but I'd be the first to admit to being an early bird rather than a night owl and I don't cope brilliantly on less sleep. That may be all about to change though...

The Isle of Wight is a good spot for catching The Milky Way, especially from the southern side. So last month me and me mate Christian headed out to see if we could find and photograph it.  For a first successful attempt I'm pleased with the results, though night photography comes with it's own set of problems to overcome and I've been overdosing on tutorials and information on how to improve.

With a head full of new information I can't wait to get out again, to try out some of the stuff I've learnt and improve.
