Shooting milky way at Reflection Canyon was on my list for a long time. But, going there is not easy. It requires a 8 mile hiking one way and in addition to our photography gears and food, we have to carry two day's water. My friend Michael Zhang planed this trip. After few weeks preparations, five of us including Edcool went there last weekend.
Before we went, we checked the weather forecast and knew there were some clouds at the night when we were there. It also said the sky would be cleared after 2 am. So, we setup our cameras and hoped we would get nice milky way shots. However, we weren't that lucky. The clouds came and went and we didn't get a clear sky. But, while the clouds were moving, sometimes we could see milky way and sometimes we didn't. So, I just kept shooting anyway.
This photo was merged with two rows of panoramic shots. One row for milky way with regular milky way settings, and another row for foreground with three minutes long exposure.
Thanks for taking the time to take a look of my pictures. Your views, comments, faves, and support are greatly appreciated!!
I'm kinda into putting stuff in front of my subject at the moment •• I try different things •• this time it was this car •• I tried to fill the space with characters •• kinda like the result this time •• What do you think?
Water reflections in various colors and shapes mesmerize me. Constantly changing shapes, lines and patterns. Living abstraccts fascinagting to watch. Trigger creativity. What do you see in such reflections?
I was at the local nature reserve, taking pictures of the ducks. I saw the reflection of the trees in the water. The surface of the water was like a millpond, but the breeze was moving the branches on the trees. I liked the abstract look this gave. I converted to black and white as there was little colour in the scene anyway and what there was, was distracting.
