Simply the loveliest of nights; I gave the timelapse effect another go this evening, with a brighter moon, getting brighter results.

Nice one Bill. Out late again

Anyone know if the tower on Apple Pie Hill presents a good option for some night horizon shots? I climbed up there on my first trip into the pines.
The time I went up the tower was during the fires this summer, and there was someone up top with a radio. Is the "hatch" to the top always closed? Don't get me wrong, it was still a great view from the stairs going up...
I'd imagine you could get a great view of the sky from almost anywhere, but can anyone think of any other good spots to get a nice landscape/horizon view of the pines?
Manumuskin and I did some wandering around Oswego Lake last Saturday night. A nearby bog had some wild fog action going on, so we directed the headlights of my truck over the water and I came up with the photo below. I s'pose only a night owl like myself can appreciate stuff like this.

Whippoorbill and everone, very nice photos. I went to the photobucket at the first posting and after the barrens, there is a band. Can I ask who is in the band? The first photo was blurry and I thought the guitarist was Warren Haynes.

My wife and I have been there a couple times when it's been opened and occupied. Both times, the person allowed our group to enter and explain what he does each shift. It was pretty neat, from what my wife told me. I can't make it past the 4th level of the tower, so I've never been to the top or inside.
