[QUOTE="rocknride814, post: 155389, member: 11931"] Hello, I have been trying to do a time lapse of the night sky over Anza Borrego Desert State Park in Southern California. I am using a Nikon D7000. My Nikkor lens aperture are from 3.5-5.6G. The intervalometer is working fine, I can get the stars exposed quite well when pointing the lens straight up at the zenith part of the sky, but when pointing toward the horizon in the frame, I can not figure out on decreasing the amount of light given off of the large town in the distance (El Centro) without fading out the stars above. What settings would work best with the stars still being well visible with the horizon, but expose less light given off by the civilization. Any thoughts? ISO settings? White Balance? Cheers, Philip [/QUOTE]
