I stepped outside last night and couldn't help but notice the stars shining brilliantly in the moonless sky. Luckily for me I live right across the road from a small lake with good views of the surrounding mountains. It was so still and I could hear every noise. A fish jumping across the lake was enough to startle me, and the rustling in reeds along the shore made me look twice in that direction. Nature is so beautiful!
This was shot with my Canon 6D and 17-40mm f/4. This is not a great lens for astrophotography and I have plans on upgrading to the 16-35 f/2.8 II as soon as possible. If anyone has one that's in great condition and would like to sell it, let me know!
