Here's a shot taken on the 6th night of my SW trip. It was really late and Wayne and I where trying to squeeze in as many locations as we could before he had to head back to Salt Lake for a flight home. We hit this spot and immediately started setting up the lighting, It seemed that after shooting together for a short time we managed to work out a great procedure to prevent spoiled exposures do to a headlamps being turned on during an exposure, and after an hour or so it seemed like we had been shooting together for years, we were snapping away and not having any difficulty stepping on toes so to speak. The first night we were shooting together at the Kiva, Wayne had kindly offered to let me use his 6D since he would be using a new Nikon 810a and it was a tempting offer, and now that I think about it, I probably should have, just to say I had a photo taken with Wayne Pinkston's camera. But I was determined to see it through with my 70D so I really push the ISO on this shot and extend my exposure time as there would be less movement in the MW at this angle. The milky way was really high in the sky at about 2:00am which makes for a bluer sky and at this angle I didn't have to fight with light pollution. I was able to capture this shot at my camera's maximum ISO setting and It is a single exposure at 4000k white balance. All of the night photos from this trip I have been varying the white balance so that I could establish a white balance I like the best. :)
We used "LLL" to light the scene here.
