Milky Way and Star Photography in Austria

in #milkyway21 hours ago

During summer Time I like to take some pictures of the Milky Way here in Austria and last year I was pretty sucessful and I could take some pictures of the milky way on several occasions. Unfortunately there are only very few spots left that are dark enough with only very few light pollution that allows to take some nice pictures of the milky way. But Stefan and I found some spots in or near the Alps where it is still possible to get a nice view of the milky way in the night.

You also need to have a nice lens with a good aperture so you can catch as much light as possible in a tiny time frame. Because when you expose the pictures for too long the stars that are dots on these pictures begin to get strips due to the earth rotation.
