Night Landscape Images
"I often think that the night is more alive and more richly colored than the day"
-- Vincent Van Gogh
These images were taken with a simple
DSLR
and camera lens, on a tripod or
portable tracking mount.
Shooting these extreme wide field images is a joy. It is a relatively simple "low impact"
way to image the night sky -- plus it is very cool to see celestial objects in context
with the natural (or man-made) environment.
Many of these images were taken while traveling on vacation. This is another great aspect
of imaging with a DSLR... portability!
