Escape Under the Stars
I was at a dark campsite at Kodachrome Basin State Park in Utah (the host site near the visitor center) & took this (and a few more that are at 2012 Trip - Day 40). I used a flashlight to "paint" the trailer into a 30 second exposure.

Can you supply metadata for the shots?

Re: Escape Under the Stars
The full EXIF file is attached to this image http://lakeshoreimages.com/images177/ASD_2718.jpg
The basic data is: f: 4.5, Shutter speed 30 seconds, ISO 2500, Nikon D700 & AF-S Zoom-NIKKOR 17-35mm f/2.8D IF-ED @ 17mm. The flashlight exposure was about 2 seconds from the camera position using a Harbor Freight "Free" 9 LED pocket flashlight.

Re: Escape Under the Stars
Sorry about the link. It is fixed - there was a "." included after the .jpg by mistake. Should work now.

Re: Escape Under the Stars
Jon,
I notice in your picture your unit had to be elevated quite a bit due to unlevel site. Have you ever considered the B@l single axle leveler? THey work like a charm and really stabile the trailer while leveling it. I have one from my Lance unit and thinking of adding another for the new 19'.

Re: Escape Under the Stars
I've looked at them, but I'm not sure I want to add either the weight or space for one - I generally don't need more than one block to level the trailer. Because of the high lift axle I usually add the blocks to save cranking on the stabilizers. The Bal unit would save blocks under the wheels, but I'm not sure it would do as much for side to side rocking as the front & rear stabilizers...
