When it comes to "ASTRO" you need to be as far away as you can get from any lights from the city. This will otherwise impact on your result. If you allow too much light to come in you won't capture what you are trying to achieve.It will just turn out white. It takes a while to capture this type of photo so get yourself somewhere that is fairly isolated and dark and no distractions so you can really focus and take the time you need.Equipment
Me, myself and my two best buds, Camera and Tripod. I did use a flash as well and an "all-in-one" lens.Inspiration
Honestly ..I had never delved into this and I just had to try it!Editing
Let's just say for this photo, Photoshop was my best friend however I went with the "less is more" approach. I barely altered anything. The only thing that I did was crop.In my camera bag
I have my reflector, tripod, lenses, camera, and a speaker. I love to play music when I am taking photos!Feedback
The beauty of photography is you can go all out. Get yourself out there, experiment, find what you love and discover new things. You can take as many photos as you need to get your best result or outcome and have a play with your equipment.
