Learning To Shoot Star Trails
Here is the photograph AFTER the second round of advice on how to shoot the stars. And their trails as the earth moves. I was able to hold down the shutter for 260 seconds @ f4 stop and 400 ISO.If you look at the yoga studio you can see that there was very little camera shake, even though I traveled without my cable release or tripod. Next time I will be better prepared. My photography colleague sent me an amazing link if you want to see amazing star trails. Click this link. I am back in Pittsburgh but wanted to post one more Okanogan photograph.
Saw three shooting stars but these star trails fascinate me. Next time!!!!
This is a cool picture Ruth. Oh how your work makes me wish I was there.
