On A warm summers night.

On A warm summers night.
My wifes Grandson works with a German Backpacker and heard I took photos of the stars and wanted to come out and try. Markus has his point and shoot on the tracker but he is able to control all parts of the camera. For point a shoot they came out very well.

The shadow that is next to Markus is the grand son who walked into the shot.

certainly opened his eye to some thing he had never done, but not sure how a point an shoot would look on a computer screen that how it looked on the back of the camera. noise is always the killer.

no he will not and I will give him a copy of this to take home even though he has photos him self. tracked photos where better than the static photos on the point and shoot but it was asking way to much of the small Sony DSC-HX90V.

As you know it all about a starting point and you have to have that or you never get any where. this type of photography is very rewarding but a little more complicated as there is more that can go wrong very quickly. add the dark and its all a lot harder. some thing he will never forget. I can say the funniest thing was to see the tiny camera on top of my large tripods and the tracker.

I like to see others trying to do some thing that is not easy if you have never tried. he was able to get some shots from the tracker would like to see them on a computer screen but think that just may be asking too much of the point and shoot camera, was a very enjoyable night.
