Clouds and Stars, new moon night in September!

Taken at 3:51am on September 15th 2018. I got to the photo spot around midnight and I was very tired, I took a long nap and when I woke up around 3:30am it was windy and cloudy in the Carmel Highlands on the California Coast HWY1. Luckily the clouds were low and moving very fast which ended up adding to my photos instead of blocking the stars.

Testing out the #Loxia #25mm f/2.4 for #astrophotography. The best part about this lens is the infinity focus is very easy to achieve unlike all the other #Sony focus by wire lenses. With the Loxia 25mm I just focus to infinity and just check and make sure that the focus turned until it stops and that it stops at infinity. Other lenses like the Batis 25mm I had to fight and fiddle with it to get it to focus to infinity. Same with the Sony 28mm f/2 and my Canon adapted lenses (16-35mm f/4 and 28mm f/1.8). This was the case with all the other manual focus adapted lenses: Zeiss M mount 28mm f/2.8 and the Leica 28mm f/2.8. I wasn't 100%sure if the lens was at infinity focus. This photo taken with #loxia25mm on the #Sonya7r3. 📷Hi Res on Flickr, link in Bio
