damn dude that looks really cool

never been able to see anything like that

[teal yarrow]

thats fucking insane holy shit

[gaunt turret]

hehe thanks guys, if you have a camera and can find a dark sky spot, these took me a full minute in total to capture with a nikon camera

it's amazing how much is hiding in the sky that we can't see because of city light pollution :(

My phone's camera is great but not even close to good enough to take a pretty picture of stars

[gaunt turret]

i feel you :/ , I was lucky enough for my dad to have a good camera that he hasn't used for a while to use

[teal yarrow]

ahh

[gaunt turret]

there are cheaper options that work well though

bc this is a wide shot, you don't need that much quality

I recall even seeing some tutorials for using your phone with a small tripod

Oh I live in a weird place 😂 so chances are low for me

[gaunt turret]

So I live in Bucharest but when we went to the mountains we got a Class 4ish Bortle Sky so I took the chance to stay outside for a bit to see if I can get smth

Bucharest is a class 7 to 8 mostly 8 i think which is horrible :/

[gaunt turret]

oh and I have a Nikon D810 that my dad got in 2015

[round bough]

I also live in a class four to three ish region

[gaunt turret]

and as for stabilisation I used a rock

[gaunt turret]

wow that's lucky af

you would get great results if you tried a few exposures

[honest bluff]

wow thats a rlly expensive camera 😳

36.3mp sensor sheesh
