A spinning starry sky swirls like a giant vinyl record behind a north Norfolk landmark.
The stunning nighttime picture on the right was taken at the ruins of Binham Priory by keen photographer Steven Burbidge.
It is a combination of a painstaking 507 separate images taken over two hours – and some computer programming software which mixed them together for the amazing effect in just a few minutes.
Mr Burbidge, who owns Cromer Trophies in West Street, is among a group of amateur camera fans who meet up once a month to tackle a project. 'This time we were trying to get star trails – and it was a perfect clear night,' he explained.
'The priory was lit by ambient light – and a torch being used by another photographer in the group doing his pictures. The 500 images were exposed for 15 seconds each –and picked up the moving stars. The processing software spots the movement and turns it into a trail.'
The informal group, called Last Tuesday Photography, were also due to head to Warham Fort that evening, but concentrated on Binham as the temperature was dropping.
'It was cold – but worth it,' he added.
Mr Burbidge, 40, who has twice won trips to the Scilly Isles with his photography skills, has been pursuing the hobby since he was 16. He has recently taken star trail shots near his home at Itteringham near Aylsham, and experimented with spinning burning wire wool near Blickling Hall's mausoleum – a shot which gives a giant Catherine Wheel effect.
Mr Burbidge, a former Norfolk county archery champion, now has his aim set on photography targets.
His next is to return to the mausoleum and capture a swirling star trail with the pole star hub centred at the top of the pyramid tomb.
The same technique was used by reader Shaun Reynolds with Happisburgh lighthouse as the axis for the spinning sky.
For the enthusiasts – the Binham image was taken on a Canon EOS 60D, with a Sigma 10-20mm wide angle lens, sat on a tripod, with 15s exposures, at an aperture of f3.5, and ISO setting of 3200.
