Behind The Lens
Location
I was solo camping in Moab, Utah on the edge of a canyon when the stars became the best I’ve seen.Time
I spent hours running around trying to get the perfect spot starting around 11 PM.Lighting
After one shot I realized the small tent light illuminated the tent perfectly. I then focused my shots with the tent in the foreground.Equipment
I have a Nikon D3400 that was propped on a tripod.Inspiration
I’ve always been amazed by night photography and the Milky Way. Seeing pictures has made me want to try for myself.Editing
Yes I did. Since I was camping, before I started bringing my computer, I used my phone with literoom. I spent another couple hours in the tent trying to get it right.In my camera bag
I have my D3400 and 2 lenses. My GoPro 7. All charging And transfer cables plus any mounts for the GoPro.Feedback
Just keep trying until you get on the direction of how you like your shot. I’m still very learning and it’s a blast every time I get out at night.
