@theantisocialclub The photos were about 17 seconds apart.

@RobbieLD thanks, and what kind of intervalometer do you use?

[RobbieLD]

@theantisocialclub Its a Phottix TC-501 from ebay. Great little unit which does everything I need.

think there is some lieing going on ere with this video ! you state 7-10 pm yet by end there is less stars and more light !.....have you made vid wrong way round !..... some info on your set up (lens f-stop and iso) would not go a miss, peeps would be able to learn from you then.....cheers for posting though.....nick

@moomoomooism No the time is acurate. The light your talking about is the moon rising. It rose pretty late that night so I got a few hours of night sky before it did. I was hopeing to capture is going across the sky but unfortunately the lens fogged up and thats all i got. Also the F-stop was 3.5, ISO-200 and exposure was 15 seconds. Hope that helps.

I'm from the U.S., and I noticed immediately by the rotation you were in the S. Hemisphere! Then, reading on, you said the moon was appearing, so.. my guess is you were looking in the Eastern sky?

@RobbieLD ah ! sorry for my bad mistake it must have been a well bright moon that night !, vid was good, im just starting into this format for pictures with my 7d hope to see some more of your work m8.....

all the best

@Skywalker875 MY Settings were, 15 second exposure. About 2 seconds between then to allow the camera to do noise reduction, ISO of 200 and an aperture of 3.5 which is widest you can do on that lens.

@miked4592 Hey, no i didn't manually click it. I used a little device called an intervalometer which you can get from ebay for a few dollars. Its great for this kind of thing.
