Maciek, that time lapse video is fantastic. You must have been there for quite a while to get that. Just as well the nights have been warm - I'd watch out for hypothermia if you try that in the winter :eek:

Thanks Gordon. It took me 3 hours using 2 cameras to make this time lapse, and I have thrown away half of the material from wide angle camera as lens get covered with dew and I did not spot it. I have bought 12V portable hair dryer, which should arrive today, to eliminate dew problem and will try to collect more material for milky way time lapse this weekend if sky will be clear.
