A Lithuanian Fairy Tale

A Lithuanian Fairy Tale

“I had left the Lithuanian capital Vilnius and headed out of the city to a lake resort called Trakai. The main thing drawing me here was the iconic Island Castle, but I thought if it was a clear night, I might be able to see some stars. On the Saturday night, the castle was lit up and even had spotlights shining into the sky. I could make out some stars, but nothing spectacular. The next night, all the weekend tourists had returned home and the place was dead. On passing the castle this time, all the lights were off and I could get some great views of the night sky. This was a single exposure with some Lightroom adjustments and then imported into Photoshop for some luminosity work and colour correction.”
