The latest cliche. Milky Way shots

Someone discovered (about 20 years after amateur astronomers) that you can use a digital camera and a fast lens to grab 30 sec exposures of the Milky Way (our galaxy) in dark settings with a wide, fast lens. Now it's everywhere. Some shots are ok. They make good posters. It'll pass, I presume. One should be able to hard mount the camera and take as many short exposure, lowish ISO shots as one wants. Combine in post with correction for earth rotation. Using GPS to time tag the images would help with aligning the images. (esp. if higher resolution time tags were used). You would only lose on the edges of the image. (I'd be surprised that someone isn't doing this somewhere). Strangely enough, as I write this, my random desktop is a shot of the Milky Way. |
