Stargazing
Please view this large, on black
I went out driving last night, trying to escape the light pollution of my neighborhood so I could shoot more stacks of Comet Lulin. My last attempt (here and here).
What I found was basic:
1. You can't escape this much light pollution by driving 30 minutes
2. When you drive 30 minutes away from home, it takes roughly 30 minutes to get back.
3. The sky moves fast. Before ya know it, your front yard view is in your back yard.
There's no comet in this shot, but if you'd like to see how I shot the thing so far, check my blog post.
Shot with Canon 40D and the *very* fast Sigma 30mm f/1.4.
