A new edit for a favorite night up in the hills of Mt. Mainalo, Greece.

Taken in the Glaskogen nature reservation, Arvika Sweden.

With the arc of the Milky Way stretching overhead, the King of Wings continues its point to the south, just as it has for thousands of years in the Bisti Badlands of New Mexico.

An old, abandoned car makes a spectacular subject for a star studded night sky photograph.

Sometimes luck strikes back. A car was passing by a rural road near our camp. The wind though didnt cooperate.

The Milky Way arches down from the sky, then disappears below the distant horizon, seemingly casting light on the earth beneath in the Great Sand Dunes National Park in Colorado.

Awesome to see ancient starlight twinkling in the sea and over the just revealed wet but less ancient fossils of Kimmeridge Bay, Dorset.

Under the arc of the Milky Way, a stand of Bristlecone Pines stand sentry over a small Colorado community nestled in the Colorado Rocky Mountains.

The silence of the night was broken by the sounds of song and laughter coming from across the lake that rested high in the forests of the Colorado Rocky Mountains.

The first time i show Her wore green..

Grotefjord, Norway

A clear night at Badlands never disappoints. I particularly enjoyed this area coz of variety of textures in the soil in the flat part and the peaks. In the foreground, the soil textures almost feels like a reptilian scale.

A Perseid entering the atmosphere during the perseids meteor shower above the church of st Αthonas, Pilio, Greece. You may zoom in to see more details in the meteor.

DeepSkyStacker + Lr - my first attempts to stack photos. Photo consisting of 21 photos with exposure parameters 12 mm, f / 2.8, ISO 3200, 5s - OBO tripod + Manfrotto XPRO 3W.

 

I have calculated that for an observer using a 12mm lens (MFT) and an eye resolution of max 1 "angle (this is for a person with great eyesight and for good eyesight it is 2" angular) - the maximum exposure time for getting the view of unmoving stars is about 4,33 s. Such photos without visible foreground can be snapped and then folded as panels with the foreground not moved into a mosaic.

 

I wanted to check if (O-MD E-M10 Mark II) M.Zuiko 12-40 mm f / 2.8 could work in the landscape field Astro (with the subject of the foreground on the ground) without a head with guidance (sky with stars as mosaic panels ) - please give me an opinion.

 

I am thinking of using Star Adventurer or iOptron Skyguider Pro, but since the results of star formation are punctual, does it make sense to use the head leading to the astro landscape with the subject of the foreground on earth?

 

The blurred glow at the bottom of the photo comes from slowly flowing clouds gently lit by the glare of lights from a city 20 km away (Opoczno).

Deep in the night a campfire on the distant shoreline beckons a traveler surrounded in a darkness that is softened by the wonderous glow of the Milky Way high overhead and reflected on the mirror like surface of Lake Irene high in the Colorado Rocky Mountains.

Stellar waves dude. ;-)

 

This image features the Milky Way competing with the light pollution of San Francisco for visual dominance. The location is Bodega Bay, CA.

Sometimes there's luck involved. What this picture doesn't show is the determination and drive to succeed. To find something indescribable, and then make an attempt at giving it a description with a photograph. But of course this doesn't give a full story. Scouting this location we found it to be ideal perhaps for reflections, and the composition seemed nice. We weren't sure the weather would be with us.

 

Hoping around during the day we found a few locations around hood that seemed promising. In the end, we ended up here watching the low fog and high clouds roll through for almost 12 straight hours. How could we leave with such a beautiful and ever changing view rolling through as we sat.

 

Jimmy Mcintyre apparently got the memo as well, we sat and shot sunset with him here at this spot. Then drove over to lost lake to find it completely socked in. After coming back here, I pulled out my sleeping bag and fell asleep right on the beach where this shot is taken from for a couple hours. Occasionally pushing the shutter on my camera as I woke up confirming everything was still spectacular. Then we watched the sunrise here, and moved on.

 

Single shot on the d810, 24mm @ F1.4, 20 seconds, ISO1600.

Taken in the forest of Parnonas while camping for local astronomy club star party. Some thoughts on astrophotography and more images to my blog at www.star-surfing.com/blog/star-ride

Under the arc of the Milky Way, rock formations resembling alien eggs lie scattered in the Bisti Badlands of New Mexico.

Discovered at 10,000 feet in elevation, a small lake lies nestled between the towering peaks of the Colorado Rocky Mountains as it reflects the Milky Way and its company of stars that have provided a soft glow in the darkness of night.

Head to the beach, stay out all night, stargaze, swim, share stories with friends, fall in love. Today is summer solstice!

Portland Bill lighthouse on Portland Bill, Dorset - UK. A stack of 4 photos to capture the beams rotation as the stars shine aobve the rugged coastline below.

Looking at the new causeway built to protect the Jurassic coastline at Lyme Regis. Taken at night under bright moon-shine.

is also a great song from Greta Van Fleet! Anyway, this one is the last photo i share from the Green Lady, Aurora!

Second visit to the windmill and second attempt at night sky shooting. Tried much higher ISO and D800 tonight. The outback night sky is amazing!

Looking from within and high inside Double Arch, the Milky Way can be seen crossing the night sky to touch the distant horizon as thousands of stars shine like diamonds in the sky above.

This is around 200 images stacked together in Photoshop

Glaskogen nature reservation in Arvika Sweden.

Slim Buttes, South Dakota, where the grass is green and the night skies are pretty.

My final posting of the El Cotillo Lighthouse, for this year anyway. I do hope to return and give this shot another go but that will be at least a year away.

 

I was so disappointed when I saw the lighthouse in scaffolding that I was going to throw away the images but as I mentioned in a previous post I decided to use them as a reminder about being prepared and researching a location before turning up to shoot.

 

These night images have definitely given me a taste for this type of shot and I will be actively looking for similar opportunities closer to home to practice on. Watch this space...

A perfectly still and clear evening in Bridport, northeastern Tasmania. I took quite a few photos here using a 20mm Sigma lens @f1.8 - unfortunately most images are 'soft' or out of focus (too dark to see anything in the viewfinder).

 

So this image isn't as crisp as I normally like, but really wanted to upload it anyway.

The bright white light is a car approaching on the highway nearby.

 

The shot is taken from a rural property where we were staying, right next to a dam. My tripod was 'clicking' mysteriously, so I looked down to see small sparks where it was touching the electric fence!! Lucky it wasn't my leg!

Taken at Arches National Park, this photo is one of my favorites from my most recent trip. This was one of my better attempts at light paining. This is looking south near the windows. The trail goes to South Window Arch.

Sometimes it doesnt matter if your shot went as planned. Being outdoor is one of the most enjoyable aspects of photography.

Closer look of the photogenic core region with endless sea of stars. Foreground peaks illuminated with an artificial light source.
