plains milky way

Nel bel mezzo del Sud Dakota c'è una figura che si aggira di notte per la campagna. Armata della sua macchina fotografica, l'ombra notturna spara alle stelle. E la sua strada, così tracciata, diventa questo video da vedere assolutamente, meglio se a schermo intero.

Dopo il video, la descrizione dell'autore, Randy Halverson.

During the month of May, I shot Milky Way timelapse in central South Dakota, when I had the time, and the weather cooperated. The biggest challenge was cloudy nights and the wind. There were very few nights, when I could shoot, that were perfectly clear, and often the wind was blowing 25mph +. That made it hard to get the shots I wanted. I kept most of the shots low to the ground, so the wind wouldn't catch the setup and cause camera shake, or blow it over. I used a Stage Zero Dolly on the dolly shots and a "Milapse" mount on the panning ones. 
This was all shot at night. If you see stars and it looks like daylight, it is actually moon light. 20+ second exposures make it look like daylight.
