G'day iceinspace community!
Just wanted to post a quick introduction as I have finally joined this wonderful forum (which is something I have been meaning to do for a long time).
My name is Zac, and my interest in astrophotography is a relatively recent development. I began shooting nightscapes last year after moving to Stanthorpe, QLD and discovering the dark skies of Girraween National Park. I have been hooked ever since, and now spend a fair bit of time photographing the night sky in many locations and honing my techniques. No telescopes or tracking mounts yet though.
I shoot/process on the following:
Camera: Canon EOS 7D
Lens': Sigma 10-20mm f/3.5 OR Sigma 35mm f/1.4
ISO range: 2000-6400
Postprocessing: LR and PS6 on a 2010 MBP
Hopefully I can contribute meaningfully to the forums and I expect to learn a lot from all of you!
Warmest regards!
I have attached my favourite shot to date below, for more information and a higher resolution version check the 500px link here: http://bit.ly/1jcGxUa
