So close no matter how far.

Taking photos of Milky Way on highly polluted areas is pretty challenging but not impossible. I love challenges so I accepted this to try. As you can see I was on the road to my village that night and I thought to myself that I should try taking some photos and as a foreground add car light trails. Lights were hitting my lens and it was more challenging than I expected. So I had to adapt and I did that.

Too bad that I was there for just 10 minutes, if I had time I would probably make image stack and make one noise free photo that will have more details. Time was not my friend that day, I had to be quick. I'm really satisfied with results, I mean, always can be better but I'm happy. Next time it will be way better.

This photo was taken from some summer road that is meant for tractors and it's full of potholes and it can break your car suspension :D. I wanted to show you before and after of this photo with little GIF that I have made. Even tho it was taken with my old Canon 600D on really high ISO of 3200 and it was hot that time so sensor of camera was really heating up at exposure of 20 seconds.

Here is before and after. I took panorama first of, if I can remember, 6 photos that were taken vertically and then combined them into one photo that I after edited. Final photo was really huge so I had to make it lower resolution so I can post it on Steemit. :) I hope you like it.

I have one plan, to make star tracker for my DSLR and it will allow me to make longer exposures without affecting star trails in my photos. It looks pretty easy to make only I need some equipment for that but I can't find them anywhere. I will try finding them on Ebay or Aliexpress and I hope it will be cheap.

Stay tuned for that, maybe it will be soon some tutorial for that if I make it. Have a nice weekend! :)

To se ovaj moj sadašnji/budući šef zanima, za StarTracker, sa Arduinom je nešto pravio...

Verovatno bi sa Arduinom bilo jednostavnije da se napravi. Ja sam razmišljao da kupim motor od 6 rpm pa sa reduktorom voltaže da podešavam njegovu brzinu, sa Arduinom bi bilo lakše al malo skuplje. Meni je potrebno samo da nađem taj motor od 6 rpm, i plastične zupčanike, jedan od 60 zubića i jedan od 20.

Ne znam kako je tačno to izveo, da li sa nekim step-motorom, nisam video

Znam ja sve to kako ide samo su mi delovi potrebni, treba da ih nabavim pre novog Meseca, a to je za nedelju dana otprilike. :D
