Behind The Lens
Location
Cyprus, Akrotiri village.Time
NightLighting
Long exposure available light pollution which was enough from a village nearby.Equipment
Canon EOS 6D, Tamron SP 24-70mm f/2.8, tripod.Inspiration
I fell in love with astrography so I kept looking for a possible location with an interesting foreground, this was one of them but since I like to make a storytelling, I decided to include myself as Captain of the ship.Editing
Yes, the foreground being myself and alone at the location was not easy an easy task to make a photo wirelessly, so I tried many shots to choose the best. The best photo came out not the same time when the Galaxy was aligned with the shipwreck. So I made the blend of 2 photos as it is very much accepted by the regulation of National Geographic definition (Blend not Composite). In addition, the basic astrography retouching from white balance and contrast.In my camera bag
