Alot of folks were asking about the camera equipment & settings I use for some of the night photos we shot while in Alberta.
This photo was taken At spirit island on maligne lake a couple hours before the moon rose. I shot this with a @SONY a7s which is built for low light and higher ISO scenarios. In some ways a perfect camera for shooting late into the evenings. I used a Rokinon 24mm F1.4 lens… This lens gives me a ton of light with the super wide open apertures. It’s a bit heavy which is also nice for keeping a small tripod stable . I tend to prefer a more standard wide angle rather than ultra wide so the horizon doesn’t now now and the perspective stays more natural.
I shot this with a 30 second exposure which is is just on the edge of giving the stars some blur. Typically 15-25 is the best range for capturing tack sharp star trails. But I like a Lower ISO with a longer shutter speed..in the end the slight star movement doesn’t bother me.
SONY A7s - 30sec at F2 ISO 1000
Lastly I used Long Exposure Noise Reduction in camera to help smooth out any noise, I tend to use a IR remote / cable release or 2second trigger to create less movement. My tripod was a Slick 645. ✌️@travelalberta

Today it is 70 years ago that the 1st atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima. Let’s hope it will never happen again. These are the crane birds from Sasaki Sadako, she died (12 years old) by radiation cancer in 1955. The crane birds are even today a symbol of peace and against nuclear weapons.
