St Aldhelm's Chapel, Worth Matravers which over looks the English Channel. Its about 400m away from the cliffs on the Dorset Coast line.Time
The photo was taken about 3 am or in my terms silly o'clock in the morning.Lighting
The photo was taken about 3 am or in my terms silly o'clock in the morning.Equipment
I used a Canon EOS R set up on a tripod. The lens is a Sigma 14-24mm F2.8.Inspiration
Looking for a different location to visit I stumbled on the cove which is about 1.5 mile away where on google maps. Wanting to find a area with little light pollution I decided to re-visit and got some reasonable shots with my Canon 80D. But wanted to see the difference the EOS R was l returned to take this picture.Editing
Post editing was canons DPP where I adjusted the lighting to bring out the milky way.In my camera bag
Typically I take out my EOS R which I have the Sigma 14-24 F2.8 and more recently I use the Canon RF28-70mm F2 as my go to lens. Also RF 35 F1.8 and the RF 100-500. But if I'm just walking around town I'll just have the 1 lens on the camera (RF28-70 F2).Feedback
Try and find a place where there is little light pollution. Be prepared you might have to revisit the location. You can read up on what others do but and use there experience as a starting point and experiment. Its not like to good old days where you spent £££ on the film and only had 24 or 36 chances. You are only limited to your battery and memory card now and finding a subject to focus on. I still might return to the same location as my equipment grows and experience.
