RE: Wondering in Darkness

in #photography7 years ago

I love stars and moons @xcountytravelers. Your photos are beautiful. I love the partial moon in between the skyscrappers. It is too expensive to buy a telescope and the best I can do now is hope for the stars to appear for me to gaze when I get to gaze. I only have my faithful iPhone with me and it is not easy to take nice shots of the stars nor the moon. I am really glad to be able to see it here in your post. The stars around your area is in abundance! Your first stars photo is amazing! Thank you for sharing it with us @xcountrytravelers! I wish you a good week ahead :)

Thanks

That photo was shot during the lunar eclipse back in January. I was trying to get a shot of the moon between the buildings right at sunrise. Everything was nearly perfect except that it clouded up right as the sun came up and the moon reached the buildings.

It goes that way a lot. I'm still happy with the shot I got.

It is really a beautiful shot, the same goes to all your stars photos. I tried capturing photos of stars with my phone but nothing really shows. And the shot of a moon usually looks blur. It is a good idea to invest in a good camera. I think I should do what you have done, watch Youtubes to learn about photography. Thank you again @xcountytravelers.

Phone cameras are getting better and better, and you can take some amazing photos with them,but for some things you still need a proper camera. Fortunately there a many entry level cameras that are very suitable and very affordable.
