A while back i was at Zovik, a very famous place here in my country for an old stone bridge, and its really fascinating... but whats more fascinating is the amount of stars that you can see there, i cant describe is so just look at the photo and you will understand what im speaking of :D

 

Besides that, i got lucky to have a 14mm f2.8 samyang lens with me, so i had even better view of this scene with it.

 

The trouble was for me to stand still for 30 seconds, cuz i cant be like a sculpture you know :P but in the end i ended up geting what i wanted... shot at iso 3200

Last night Kay and I returned to Ouray to watch the 4th of July Fireworks. We had a great vantage point to watch a great show. This is such a beautiful mountain town.

After scouting the area earlier, we returned to the badlands at night. There were low clouds moving through the sky, reflecting light and creating some beautiful scenes.

Happy Earth Day!

 

For me, the biggest gift was to create these photos for you at dawn. I hope you will like them!

 

Story: we went to take photos of the Lyrids meteor shower, but it proved to be quite elusive. So I turned to plan B: tho photograph the starry sky.

I was just about to pack up, when I noticed a pickup coming. Just at the right moment, I pushed the button and shot the photo with the car's basic headlight assisting

and seconds later the driver has also added the spot (four additional headlights on top). That's how the tree photo down below came to be and I present it to you uncut, with minimal editing. Sometimes you ask how many photos are there, but in this case, only one. Furthermore, you can see a not so spectacular part of the Milky Way behind the tree.

 

If you like the photo, please share it and let's take care of our planet together! Thank you for your attention!

We took a trip to the top of Cottonwood Pass last night. The night sky was as clear and bright as I have even seen. We weren't too sure of the ground/snow bank we were standing on, but faint heart...

 

Ken expertly drove around the switchback without using breaks to create this cool light trail.

I've wanted to try this for a long time. This Friday night I got the chance. I wasn't sure how it was going to line up, but when I looked at the back of my camera and saw the Milky Way arching over this iconic mountain, I was pretty happy. Crested Butte is a really beautiful town.

Shot with D800 at 17mm, 20secs, f/2.8, ISO 3200, EV+1. Processed by digital blending of one shot.

 

Increasing manual exposure at foreground, red & blue color blending at the sky.

 

Enjoy the picture.

We spent the better part of the night at Delicate Arch a couple weeks ago. We had a great time lighting this beautiful landscape and watching the Milky Way rise in the sky.

On the morning before traveling to Theth, the national park i had the opportunitity to shoot the beautiful mosque of Shkodra, with the Cathedral in the backdrop. The sky was pretty dull and therefore i used a single shot of the milky way from the same night and created this Vortex effect with them. Later on i blended all the shots together in order to create a very interesting sky

 

I used approximately 200 star trail shots to create this sky, and also 4 other shots to blend the foreground in photoshop... It took me almost 12 hours just to stitch the shots of the stars and i ended up having a file of 68 gb, and than the rest was a game of selection and creativity

 

Hope you like it

These shots were pretty tough to line up and shoot, but I really wanted something with a human perspective.

Most of the amazing colorful astrographies are created during a dark moonless night.

In addition to clouds, photography can be interrupted either by sunrise or moonrise, this time it was no different.

After the moonrise, I didn't pack it, but I waited for the magical, moonlit autumn landscape.

The moon was illuminated to only 20%, but with its brightness it was able to color the landscape sufficiently, while various nebulae, galaxies and star clusters are still visible.

Kay and I took some time out of shooting wildflower scenes last week to take advantage of some beautiful night skies. This castle ruin looking observation tower provided a cool foreground and Kay added the human touch to the scene.

Milkyway season is on and its hard to get some awesome milkyways in Qatar because of light pollution but somehow Photographers and milkyway chasers get something like i did .

 

Location: Um Bab - Qatar

Last minute trip to the Carolina coast to view the Perseids show on Sunday while most of the night we were fighting the clouds managed to get at least one shot off that was semi clear. Also turns out I captured some lightning on the left side and received some help with some low level light painting on the pier from the lighthouse that was about a mile down the coast which tested out a night filter that I was trying out. My first time being able to view a meteor shower and could not stop yelling “holy shit” every time one went flying by.

El dique y el centro galáctico, el corazón de la Vía Láctea.

.Ultima Luna nueva del invierno.

Mucho viento, mucha tierra en la cara y en los ojos, frío, calorcito, ya que mi amigo Alan estaba haciendo un tremendo asado a metros de donde estaba sacando esta foto; el miedo a que queden mal las fotos para las panorámicas, la emoción de la cantidad enorme de estrellas fugaces que vimos con nuestros ojos, la alegría de que iban quedando bien las fotos que tenia en la cabeza y las que salieron ahí en el momento, el cansancio de las caminatas que hicimos durante la tarde y la noche. Muchas sensaciones en una noche.

Al final salió todo bien.

NGC 4236 is a barred spiral galaxy located in the constellation Draco.
