This has to be one of my very first attempts at Milky Way photography back in 2013 as my all time favorite mentor, Marc Adamus was teaching us the wonders of looking through an ultra wide angle lens such as the Nikon 14-24mm. The camera/lens is really close to the ground in front of a fairly small pool of water. However, at 14mm, it was possible to get these beautiful reflections in the water and create a bigger scene than one really existed.
This was a favorite tree besides Owen' River in Bishop that no longer exists. This was captured several years ago during a summer trip with my son and was an early attempt at star trails photography. This was a revered location to many Eastern Sierra lovers. I wonder how many other beautiful locations have been lost to nature as time marches on.
This an early attempt at Milky Way photography while in a remote region of Death Valley National Park. My son and I had some time off during summer several years ago and we had a lot of fun exploring the Eastern Sierras for photo locations. Since then it has become one of my favorite locations to visit.
