Two First Places

High Desert Skies    Ross Steensland

This photo was taken early Sept. in the Modoc National Forest. I light painted the foreground by brushing my flashlight beam across the scene from edge to edge to give the unique lighting on the grass. I then proceeded to light paint the junipers in the back separately. Finally, I took 7 sky images to stack for noise reduction.  Foreground: f8, iso 1000, 4.5 min exposure blended in photoshop.

 

Jupiter and The Milky Way    Susan Sheets

The Milky Way and Jupiter shot at Secret Beach in September was a very nice evening to remember and shoot. Cloudless skies, good company, no wind and warm temps!  15 sec., iso 6400, f2.8
