Photos of the starry sky - from all trips in one post

While I am finishing my article about, how to photograph the starry sky, want to share all my photos where there are stars and night sky. I have already laid them out a little in my previous posts, but let it be better in one place. In fact, I do not have very many of them, because you cannot take such photos in the city either, since everything is illuminated, and in the region, because there are not enough objects for the foreground. Therefore, on the last trip to the Crimea, I can say I fell for it. It’s a pity that the battery was already dead by the end of the trip and I didn’t dare to shoot timelapse, although I really wanted to try it. I hope I will still have such an opportunity in the near future, especially since I am now more or less equipped for this..

I also wanted to say that in spite of the fact that the shooting is quite long, I want to sleep painfully, and the photos of the starry sky are about the same, all the same, the process delays and it is very interesting to see what came of it. And when I look at such photos from the pros, I understand that this type of shooting has not yet exhausted itself and you just need to turn on your imagination: do the backlight with a flashlight, look for the reflection of the stars in the water, use all sorts of objects for the foreground, take landscape photos of constellations, etc. And if you do timelapse, then in general you can make such stunning videos ...
