planet alignment
Planets orbit around the sun in our solar system in elliptic path with different speeds and distance from the sun. Due to this difference there are times where the planets appeared visually from earth in aligned configuration. These days ,Four shiny planets are lined up over the eastern horizon before dawn (Saturn - Mars- Jupiter-Venus) , i started last week to plan an imaging session for them .
Two days ago i managed to take the shot away from the city by about 25 km ,i climbed a mountain of height 550 meters . I setup my gears ( Canon 5D mark IV) with canon 70-200 mm lens on a fixed tripod . My plan was to shoot the iconic towers and buildings in the new constructed city in the eastern desert of EGYPT called " New capital" in a panoramic rows with different settings to stack them into HDR image and make a blending with the sky when the 4 planets come over the horizon.
Foreground : 21 images at different settings for HDR.
Sky: 61 images with sigma 35 mm at F8 , iso 6400 , 8 seconds.
Location : New capital, Egypt.
The diffraction spikes around the planets are formed by making the aperture of the lens at F8, i intend to do so to make this beautiful spikes around Venus and Jupiter.
The 4 planets are in a very wide field in the sky so i succeeded in put only 3 of them into my FOV ( Mars - Jupiter - Venus).
