Stellenbosch mountain last night...

I'm not going to answer every 2nd person's OMG WHO DIED questions. Nobody dead. A few buildings that burned down but nothing serious.

5D mk II
17-40mm

15s
F5.6

ISO800 exposure for the brightest part of the orange
ISO3200 for fg and stars

The noise is pretty damn unbelievable. In the shadows above the helipad it's quite bad but the oranges are damn smooth!

I love it how the focus at first goes to the "H" in front but then you see what's going on actually. Good work! :+fav:
