This workshop steps you through the basic settings for photographing the stars and Milky way. Detailed notes are provided.
In the field I will teach you HOW TO:
- focus to help ensure the sharpest and most pleasing shots of our night skies taking into account the Earth’s rotation and NPF rule
- adjust your camera settings in manual mode for ISO, shutter speed and aperture taking into account reasonable exposure levels using the histogram
- shoot panoramas (great for the Milky way)
- shoot star trails
- shoot timelapses
- light paint foreground objects such as buildings, trees etc to create images with the stars in the background
- manage white balance in your shots as well as in light painting
- hoot multiple images of foreground and background shots to be stacked so to further reduce noise in your image
