#Repost @nightscapades ・・・ 28 Apr 2018. Massive! 😱 The Milky Way is big. Very big. In fact, it’s massive! To try to convey some of that vastness to you I chose a “standard” focal-length lens to take this photo of the Milky Way’s core rising over the Tasman Sea, on Australia’s east coast. Lots of nightscape photos are captured with wide-angle lenses, which have focal-lengths of 14mm, 24mm and the like. For something different, though, I like to shoot with longer lenses from time to time, especially when this is the result. 🌌 It’s a photo that, in all humility, made me say “wow” out loud when I looked at it on my camera’s preview screen. Seeing the number of stars that the camera captured light from, as well as the gigantic dust lanes and dark gas clouds that block out light from just as many stars again, it was hard not to be amazed at the sight of it seemingly rising from the ocean. Creation is full of innumerable wonders like this, and it’s a huge privilege to be able to photograph a few of them. 📷 This single-frame image was taken with a Canon EOS 6D camera, through a Canon 50mm STM lens @ f/2.8, using an 8-second exposure @ ISO 12800.

#Repost @ny_2_az (@get_repost) ・・・ Lightning is by far my favorite thing to try and capture with a camera! Today is the first "official" day of monsoon season in AZ! I look forward to chasing some monster storms very soon! Last year was kind of a dud as far as I'm concerned! This early 2016 storm was amazing though! Hope there are many like this one in 2017 #tbt #monsoonseason #superstitionmountains #weownthenight_ig #weownthenight_az #nightshooters #azroadways #arizonahiking #arizonahikersguide #instagramaz #igsouthwest #igersphx #arizona_landscapes #see_arizona  #beon12 #fox10phoenix #abc15 #cbs5az #arizonahighways #itsamazingoutthere #visitmesa  #visitarizona #az365 #azculture #adventure #visitarizona #repost #lightning (at Asgard)

Regrann from @nightscapades - 24 May 2018. Sky and sea 👌🏻🌌 I can think of few more majestic sights than seeing the Milky Way climbing elegantly, gracefully and purposefully over the surging sea. The saying goes that time and tide wait for no-one. The nightly passage of the stars overhead waits not, either. That is one reason I think I will not ever tire of looking up to see this free yet fabulous, simple yet sublime display of light and movement. The show goes on even if nobody is watching, but who wants to waste a show so special? 👍 This single-frame photograph was shot from under the cliffs of Black Head, in Gerroa, New South Wales, Australia. I used a Canon EOS 6D Mk II camera, a Samyang 14mm XP lens @ f/2.8, with an exposure time of 25 seconds @ ISO 6400. • • • • • @astro_photography_ @space @universe247 #astro_photography_ #astronomy #astrophotography #darkskyshots #elitelongexposures #fantastic_universe #globalpixels #ig_astrophotography #ig_shutterworld #night_shooterz #nightimages #nightphotography #nightscape #nightscapeoz #nightscaper #nightshooters #stargazing #startalkradio #timelessuniverse #universe #universetoday #WeOwnTheNight_IG #night_excl #StargazingABC #super_longexpo #milkyway #galaxy #WOTN_MilkyWay #MilkyWayChasers #MilkyWayGrams @abcopen @igersillawarra

29 Apr 2018. Moos that make milk, under the Milky Way. 🐄 OK, these four-legged farm animals aren't called “moos”, they’re cows, but try to go with it, please. The photo doesn’t convey the aroma that was in the air next to this field of cows, nor does it pass on to you the sounds that I was subject to as the cows did things to add to that aroma. Hopefully, though, it does bring you the serenity and peace that some, like me, find in rural settings like this one near Kiama, Australia. Whether it be during the day or at night; in clear skies or cloudy; and while walking, cycling or driving, places like this soothe my soul. That being said, give me a moonless night under a cloudless sky and you’ll find me one very contended person! 🌌 The bright, white “star” at the top-left corner of this photo isn’t a star at all, but the giant planet Jupiter. Down at the bottom of the scene, up and a little to the right of the pole in the centre, our solar system’s second-largest planet, Saturn, is also making its presence known. 📷 I shot this photo with a Canon EOS 6D Mark II camera, a Rokinon 24mm lens set to an aperture of f/2.4, for an exposure time of 13 seconds @ ISO 6400. • • • • • @astro_photography_ @space @universe247 #astro_photography_ #astronomy #astrophotography #darkskyshots #elitelongexposures #fantastic_universe #globalpixels #ig_astrophotography #ig_shutterworld #night_shooterz #nightimages #nightphotography #nightscape #nightscapeoz #nightscaper #nightshooters #stargazing #startalkradio #timelessuniverse #universe #universetoday #WeOwnTheNight_IG #night_excl #StargazingABC #super_longexpo #milkyway #galaxy #WOTN_MilkyWay #MilkyWayChasers #MilkyWayGrams (at Jamberoo, New South Wales)

13 Apr 2018. (Almost) driven to despair 🌞☁️ My part of Australia is having an unusually warm Autumn this year. The temperature has been around 35c for the past two days, whereas the average temperature for the month is usually around 23c. We’ve had a run of sunny days and clear nights as well, and last night was the first time in nearly two weeks that I could get out for some photography. A forecast of consecutive cloudless sunny days implied cloudless nights in between, but after driving 110km to get away from the lights of two big cities (Sydney and Wollongong), I arrived at Gerroa Beach only to get out of the car and find the sky half-covered in clouds. I waited for about half an hour before moving to a couple of other spots, where the sky was less cloudy but still not totally clear. 🌌 This photo of the Milky Way’s core rising, flanked by clouds on the right, was taken at one of those locations, on the road to a lovely Australian country town, Jamberoo. Apart from one passing car in a 45 minute period I had the road to myself, and was able place my tripod and camera in the centre of the road for several shots like this one. About three kilometres to the east, beyond the hill in the photo, the town of Kiama (population 22,000) was sending wasted light up to the sky, creating the white glow at the end of the road. Sodium fog lamps on the highway to the west of Kiama gave the clouds their slightly pink hue, as captured by the camera. 📷 My single-frame photo was shot with a Canon EOS 6D MkII camera, fitted with a Rokinon 24mm lens @ f/2.4, for a 6-second exposure at ISO 6400. • • • • • @astro_photography_ @space @universe247 #astro_photography_ #astronomy #astrophotography #darkskyshots #elitelongexposures #fantastic_universe #globalpixels #ig_astrophotography #ig_shutterworld #night_shooterz #nightimages #nightphotography #nightscape #nightscapeoz #nightscaper #nightshooters #stargazing #startalkradio #timelessuniverse #universe #universetoday #WeOwnTheNight_IG #night_excl #StargazingABC #super_longexpo #milkyway #galaxy #WOTN_MilkyWay #MilkyWayChasers #MilkyWayGrams (at Jerrara)

31 Mar, 2018. Stars out over the Tasman 🌊 The Tasman Sea lies between Australia and New Zealand and is affectionately known as “The Ditch”, in a similar vein to how the Atlantic Ocean between the USA and England is colloquially known as “The Pond”. This photo captures the Milky Way’s galactic core, in all of its brightness & detail, rising over The Ditch while the white light from a ship beyond the horizon gives off a meagre glow by comparison. There is a very faint reflection of the Milky Way visible on the sea’s surface as well. 🔨 The rocks in this area are distinctly rounded granite boulders that seem to have sprung from the coastal grasses among which they lay. The formation of such rocks is apparently due to magma that cooled and crystallised beneath the Earth’s surface, compared to the many volcanic rock formations that can be found in the area. 📷 This is a single image, shot with a Canon EOS 6D Mk II camera, a Rokinon 24mm lens @ f/2.4, and an exposure time of 13 seconds @ ISO 6400. • • • • • @astro_photography_ @space @universe247 #astro_photography_ #astronomy #astrophotography #darkskyshots #elitelongexposures #fantastic_universe #globalpixels #ig_astrophotography #ig_shutterworld #night_shooterz #nightimages #nightphotography #nightscape #nightscapeoz #nightscaper #nightshooters #stargazing #startalkradio #timelessuniverse #universe #universetoday #WeOwnTheNight_IG #night_excl #StargazingABC #super_longexpo #milkyway #galaxy #WOTN_MilkyWay #MilkyWayChasers #MilkyWayGrams (at Tuross Head, New South Wales)
