AstroLandscapes #40 - Sunny Hunny

[FenlandPaul]

A few weeks ago I took a trip up to Hunstanton in NW Norfolk to take some nighttime shots.  I'd had in mind to shoot over the lovely zig-zag groyne sea-defences and hopefully get Orion setting over the Wash.  It was during that week when we had clear but quite hazy skies.  It wasn't the best night for shooting, and Hunstanton itself has rather more light pollution that I'd like!

I also decided to record my first vlog out in the field.  I really enjoy watching other people out in the landscape taking nightscape shots, but there aren't that many people who seem to do it, so I thought, in my own clumsy way, I'd try to add to the videos out there!  

Anyway, here are my images from that night, and the vlog I recorded.  I think I'll be making future videos a lot shorter - maybe less than 15 minutes - but it was fun to do (although it adds a lot of complexity to a nighttime photo shoot!).

Hope you enjoy,

Paul

Definitely as 'less is more' consumer here.  I'll not be going down the vlog route!!

Cheers, Paul.

Cheers, Paul.

The added hassle factor is definitely real, but I’ll give it a go a few times and see whether it’s materially detracting from the overall experience, which is the most important thing for me. It’s impossible to do in high winds, that’s for sure!
