Hi all,
Here are some of my shots from our latest night out at Hargraves Lookout.
First image is of the Milky Way around the Coal Sack which is a stack of 5 x 10 second exposures at ISO 3200. For some reason I chose to stack 6 x 10 second exposures for the Milky Way core shot.
Both shot using my Canon 60D and a Sigma 50mm f1.4 Lens. These were shot wide open at f1.4. I tried stopping the lens down to improve the stars but wasn't happy with the exposures as they looked too dark for 10 seconds.
Higher Res shots can be found here:
Southern Milky Way
Milky Way Core
I also shot a time lapse of the Milky Way setting with the exact same settings used for these images. This makes up just one small sequence of a longer project I'm working on. This sequence is made up of 432 x 10 second exposures. It can be viewed
here.
Any feedback is appreciated and thanks for looking.
Jason
