Couple of shots I got very casually completely on auto everything. I think with a tripod and manual mode (ISO 500, 1/60 second exposure) and luck with timing you could get some vivid shots. I took like 300 shots and only a few were good.




I like to think of the power lines as leading lines.

Wasn't even sure I was going to see fireworks. Winery Tour was the concrete plan for the 4th. Drank my red, white, and blue.


Also, major thanks to jchap for PMing me details on a basic telescope configuration.

 

[jchap]

Forecast indicates tonight will be perfectly clear and calm with excellent seeing conditions.

My agenda:

1. Re-collimate SCT
2. Get my OAG problems sorted
3. Go after the Fireworks galaxy (being 4th of July weekend and all)

I spent this afternoon working on an anti friction modification to my mount's azimuth swivel to make polar alignment easier and I built a new flat box using a photoluminescent panel. Looking forward to seeing how it all works.

Thanks! I just made one this morning. If anyone wants to follow it, I think this is the link to it: https://flic.kr/ps/2UF5Uu

A few questions though:
- Before it gets too cluttered, how would you/how do you organize your photos? Each day has their own gallery or just upload all at once and if any significant event happens, that goes to its own gallery?
- What's the best way to share photos on here? I noticed lots of the posts here are clickable with a title at the side. Is there a button on Flickr that can do that for me? I have't really checked yet.
- What's your Flickr profiles? I'd like to follow more people too

Have started following you

I tend to create albums for holidays, places I visit often or the types of film I shoot with

If you select the image you want to share, click on the arrow on the bottom right of the image, then select bbcode and the size of image you want to post and it will generate the link for you. Just copy and paste

Mine is above next to my image

Also added you.

I'm stuck trying to decide which services to use. Between EyeEm, VSCO Grid, Flickr and 500PX... Too much choice!

I'm finding EyeEm is probably my choice for mobile and 500PX for RX100 and mobile as both seem to have good communities and easier to get exposure.

Instagram is just people taking selfies and photos of their shoes. Awful.

Hi Photography GAF!

I'm not a pro by any means and I don't take photos regularly (hell, the only camera I have is my iPhone), but I recently remembered this shot I took and I figured it was worth sharing. I guess I just kind of lucked out with this one.

Cheers. That building wasnt to bad, compared to other places. Strange noises etc, definitley creeps you out at times. Also, really liked the image you posted with the barn uner the stars. Has a very nice atmosphere to it.

How do you like that weird Sony camera...lens..thingy you are using? Followed.

Some recent shots. I really wish I lived in some exciting city that has interesting things to shoot around every corner. Helsinki starts to feel a bit dull.. maybe I just need to work harder to spot cool things.

Thats what I really struggle with sadly, feel like I have shot every spot within a 20 mile radius haha, you want to swap cities?

Question: Does anybody recommend anything special for night photography, or would something like this do just fine? http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Nikon-Products/Product/Digital-SLR-Cameras/D5300.html

I don't know how well it performs with high ISO, most cameras start to get noisy around 1600 even if you are able to raise the ISO to 12000. But if you get a prime lens with a greater aperture you can reduce that problem to a certain degree

I have the same problem too. I just end up putting it on most depending how I like the image but most of it goes to Instagram because that's where I feel will get the most views. I'm still new at any type of photography so it's nice seeing that attention to my picture lol >>

I'll put up some impressions soon. I was going to put it on /r/photography first on reddit since someone asked but I'll probably say it here before there.

Also, trying out this flickr sharing thing

Turns out the Fireworks Galaxy is pretty dim and behind a spiral arm of the Milky Way. What does it all mean? That I need at least a few more hours of data before I'll have an image with the noise under control.

Here is what I got with the data I captured on Saturday:

That galaxy picture is amazing. Love looking at those photos.

More abandoned stuff. Tried to mess around a bit with the light on my phone, place was near pitch black.

Last year I kickstarted the Lomography x Zenit Petzval Lens and just used it for the first time on my X-E2 via a Nikon F adaptor and I'm really happy with the results.

Petzval In The Park by Heliconsoul, on Flickr

It's not overly sharp, and it's really fiddly to use, but for portrait and single subject stuff it's lovely. A one trick pony but a good one.

Not worth £450 as it is, but for £260 through Kickstarter it's great and the build quality is outstanding.

You just reminded me of the one I found in San Diego, CA.

Here's some from a recent trip to Seattle, WA. (I dunno how to shoot photos, I just go for it with my little Fuji X100s).

I have posted pictures of Nashville before, but not sure about this set.

Nice! I grew up in the Nashville area (Brentwood to be more specific) but I instantly recognize and nostalgia over.

I think you're limited by your lens' aperture. I think you could get more detail with double the exposure time if you cannot change your lens.

At some point I'm going to do more night photography in Austin with time lapse, but I'm preoccupied with the prospects of home ownership for the next few months maybe. Oh well, Austin is much more temperate in October anyway.
