Night Sky Long Exposures

These three photos are my first relatively successful attempts at capturing the night sky. I plan on putting more effort into this, with respect to more interesting composition, formal descriptions of the part of the sky in the picture, sharper focus, and improved post processing.

I would appreciate feedback on how to technically improve the capture of the night sky, especially with respect to focusing. Actually focus in general is something I'm looking to improve this summer. Feedback, and/or ideas on how to make composition more interesting would also be appreciated.

Last but not least, advice on post processing long exposures, and/or images shot at high ISO (these were 3200 I believe) would be amazing. I work with FLOSS tools like GIMP, and UFRaw. Bennett000 (talk) 04:34, 22 May 2013 (UTC)
