*Milky Gold Town* Did I get lucky or what! This past weekend I took Jeff Sullivans night workshop at Bodie Ghost Town, which allowed us to be in till 1am. Not only did we get the most insane sunset I have ever seen, but it cleared up for Milky way once it got dark. Perfect photographers weather if you ask me! This is a frame from my timelapse. Well the foreground shot which i lit with my flashlight I took after to get a better foreground shot. Star shot and timelapse specs: Canon 5D MK III Canon 17-40mm f/4 L ISO 6400 f/4 30 Seconds Foreground Shot: Canon 5D MK III Canon 17-40mm f/4 L ISO 3200 f/4 30 Seconds I masked the two shots together using photoshop and edited the shot with that and Lightroom 5. -Enjoy!
Bodie Traffic This ghost town is too much. I was so use to the tiny Ghost Towns back in Aspen I had no idea there were huge ghost towns like this. The place is incredible to say the very least. While my other cameras were busy I decided to use the glow sticks I brought, to light this car up. It took me a bit to get the light how I wanted it, moved the sticks around a few times to get it just right. Then lit the foreground with a headlamp. I could have asked for better clouds for this shot either. I got tons more from Bodie, hopefully I get to them all soon!
