Behind The Lens
Location
This is one of most important place in my life, it's so full of story, of art and engineering, but it's so unknown to the main stream of tourism. Where is it easy: In italy, in the region Lombardia, under the Lecco province, the village is Paderno d'Adda, at San Michele Bridge and San Michele Ceppo. Coord.: Lat.: 45°40'50.10"N Long.: 009°27'18.86"ETime
The series of shots started at 20:29:46UTC and finished at 21:42:30UTC of the 13 April 2013 The condition were just perfect, I decided to do it after a wonderful perfect condition of sail training on the lake.Lighting
Ahhh lights, this place is one of the most complicate pollution sky and valley where to shoot Astrophotography, second only to the centre of Milano city. Here you see a sky blue and woods "green", but in reality the sky out of the raw file is purple-orange and all wall of the valley were orange-yellow due to the light of the dams on the right. In theory the plan was to shoot the bridge lighted, but luckily, it wasn't because as you can see what happened with the light of the train on the bridgeon second floor.Equipment
Camera: Canon eos 500d Lens: Samyang 8 mm f3.5 Asph. IF MC Fish-Eye Tripod: BENRO A-1691T M8 Travel Agent Head: BENRO B0 Now I don't remember if I had already the CamRanger wireless remote control or I was still on laptop tethered Patient, Jacket and gloves.Inspiration
Well it was years that I would do it, half an hour before I did a similar shot, but with different angle and with the ISS flyby over, later I decided to do one of my desire, and also show/share with the world the beautiful of this landscape of my country... I mean on web you can see so many awesome panorama, from desert or peak of mountain, but it's easy to show something that people cannot' reach with perfect condition of light...Editing
Yes, absolutely, it's a time-lapse star-trail image, today it's not possible to do in different way. But I didn't use huge program today available, I did all as craftsman, using Aperture 3.X tools to prepare all raw files (yes I use RAW instead JPEG for this images) and later stitched all with dedicated software, after the image created a couple of correction with NikSoftware.In my camera bag
Well now I tend to reduce the mass to bring with me so is changing time to time, Always the Canon eos 500d (or if I know the conditions will be hard the eos 7d Mk1) with normal zoom Canon 18-55 f/3.5-5.6 IS (or SIGMA 17-70mm F2.8-4 DC Macro OS HSM with Polarized filter), the razor Canon EF 200 mm f2.8 L II, a rain cap, air blower, energy food, plastic bag, sd, battery, pen, drops for eyes, business cards holder, some medicine, iPad, cables and adapters, head lamp...Feedback
Planing, fantasy, composition and test test test!!! Yes practice is important, and also some theory, people today don't want do theory works/planning but it help a lot, to be faster, perfect, in one word PRO!!! Keep battery charge, I bought a huge power bank: 2[A]=20000[mA] for who don't know units... (now with iPad i've less problem vs laptop).
