I hope some daytime long exposure is also okay. I used a welding glass as a very strong ND filter to get a 27 second exposure during a very sunny day. Long Exposure Arashi Beach, Aruba by Nestor's Blurrylife, on Flickr Long Exposure Arashi Beach, Aruba by Nestor's Blurrylife, on Flickr

Those are extremely cool. I have a material + homemade cover for my telescope for day-time solar viewing, I think I will try it out on my camera some time soon and see if I can get some pictures of sunspots.

These are great, but have you had people calling the cops because of the creepy dude with the giant camera lurking outside their house?

Not sure if this counts as long exposure photos per se, but I was out at Big Bend on Memorial Day weekend and got some timelapse photography of the night sky (it is pitch black out there). The video goes up to 3840x2160 (4K UHD) resolution since it's put together from stills: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvRTk59cj1w Pretty much every Milky Way shot was taken at 11mm, f2.8, 20 seconds on my Canon T2i. zeroprime fucked around with this message at 00:25 on Jun 8, 2014 |

I did some strange things I took these in Colorado, near Divide, pointing towards Pikes Peak. I used a Canon 6D, and a Canon EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 - I took the plastic mount cover off the back to make it mount on the 6D This one is 15mm, 20 seconds, ISO6400  This one was shot at 10mm, 30 seconds, ISO4000. Rectilinear in a circle, weird I know. The mirror will hit the rear lens element if you shoot like this, but if you use Live View, then it works fine. I was using my iPhone as a remote trigger to take these pictures.

I'm trying to get into non-telescope dslr night time astrophotography. Here are some attempts. Some trailing stars visible so I've got a long way to go. I honestly like the light dome in the bottom one. They all were taken from fairly dark skies but it seems the only interesting things that happen are directly over distant city lights.

Sky was beautifully clear last night. Most summer nights I'm able to see the dark lanes in the Milky Way, but they really stood out last night thanks to a lack of the thick haze that's normally present here. I was able to get this: Milky Way by venusian-weasel, on Flickr

Storms rolled through a few nights ago and after the rain died down we got a pretty impressive light show. Wish these turned out more crisp but the clouds were moving pretty quickly.     Also I'm running the Yosemite beta right now so I don't have anything to properly grade it, but here's a quick video of the actual viewing conditions that night. Pretty impressive stuff. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10100715753226973 https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10100715758286833 Whirlwind Jones fucked around with this message at 03:05 on Jul 3, 2014 |

Yes but then you'd be in the midwest and be forced to spend the clear days trying to figure out how to make corn fields fun to photograph.

They don't call them flyover states for nothing! But I do agree we get some amazing clouds out here. I just wish there was better scenery to shoot with them.

How did the two of you handle focusing on fireworks? I took a bunch manually focused at infinity and they all came out blurred and terrible.

SperginMcBadposter posted:How did the two of you handle focusing on fireworks? I took a bunch manually focused at infinity and they all came out blurred and terrible. If you dialed that in using your lens, chances are it wasn't actually focused on infinity. If you just focused to the hard stop at the end of the lens, it was probably past infinity. You can either use live view and zoom in to check focus on a distant object, or let it autofocus on something way far away, then lock it into manual focus mode and don't touch the focus ring. edit: or magic lantern focus peaking magic voodoo to check focus if you install that.

That explains it then. I was using the cheap cannon 50mm f/1.8 and had it focused to that hard stop at the end. Didn't realize it was out of focus until I looked at them on an actual computer monitor instead of shrunk down to fit the camera's lcd.

I was really surprised at how good Asbury's fireworks were this year. Lots and lots of people were commenting on how impressive it was. There was also a guy filming them via a drone. I can't wait to see that footage somewhere.
