WOW 😍

Beautiful shot by member Brendan Lynch @brendanlynch80😍

Brendan writes, "The Milky Way fades as the moon rises over Sandycove in West Cork, lighting up the sea pinks on the rocky coastline. This was not the image we had set out to take. But as Mick Jagger might say, you can’t always get what you want… and it ended up being one of my favourite nightscapes for a while."

Sky: f/2,15 Seconds, ISO 2500
Foreground: f/2, 130 Seconds, ISO 400
Moon: f/2, 5 Seconds, ISO 800

This fantastic shot by member Peter King @petedking is proof that perseverance pays off! 💪

Peter writes, "It’s just a starling. But the result of 1000s of attempts. I’ve got the evidence: tail fins, beaks, blurry, out of focus mess and just a green background."
