Photographing a Piece of the Milky Way
I just wanted to share my very FIRST Milky Way shot. I have always wanted to get this shot, but have always lived in the big city. I watched Melissa Wu's course on KelbyONE training. To assist, I used an app called "Star Walk" to help find when and where the Milky way would be. Using a wide, fast lens, along with an 'UltraPod' mini tripod, my first attempt was much easier than I thought it would be.
Things to consider:
Light Pollution. This will probably be the number one thing that will stop you from getting a great shot. The spill from the lights that you see are about 8 miles way.
Focus points. The hard thing about focusing on stars, are getting them to a point that makes them in focus. What I did, was find one of those lights on the hill and focused on it.
Air temperature. NO, the temperature wont really affect your shooting, but if its too cold, you may be really uncomfortable.
Time and location of the Milky Way. Be aware of the Milky way is and at what time of night the Milky way will be rising and setting.
The Moon. The more full the moon is, the less stars you will see.
Do you have a great shot of the stars? Post in the comments, I would love to see!
