Starry Night Love - a photo on Flickriver

Starry Night Love

"Though my soul may set in darkness, it will rise in perfect light;

I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night."
—Sarah Williams

This is a single tracked exposure I took of the Milky Way in the Grand Tetons. Canon 5DM3, Rokinon 24mm, f/5.6, 110 sec, ISO 2000, mounted on a Vixen Polarie star tracker. A radial zoom filter was applied in post.

HELP! I’m writing a book with quotes from poets, scientists, and philosophers who have been in awe and inspired by our starry night skies. I have hundreds of quotes from great thinkers, most of whom come from the Western world, and many with Judeo-Christian values. However, I lack quotes from great Eastern world thinkers or religious leaders (Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism). Can you share some of your favorite quotes or point me to the right people?

Visit with me in-person on March 14.

You can find more info and techniques in my ebook, Milky Way NightScapes, which gives extensive details on my style of starry night landscape photography. Four chapters cover planning, scouting, forecasting star/landscape alignment, light painting, shooting techniques and post processing.
