There was a bit of: Bowie can I please move you 2 cm right please? It took some work. Thanks for noticing 😄

We drove for more than an hour. He was not there to pose for photos 🤣
Shot on actual Kodak film. The nostalgia is real.
The lake was so calm that night so it all just popped
Totally makes up for missing a bucket list item 😁
The worst bit is that friends of mine did catch a glimpse from the same spot a few hours later 😔
Honestly one of my favorite photos. Thanks so much!
I have. Random outdoor cat walked over to me, demanded pets, it noticed a bird, killed the bird, and came back to me looking for more attention. I was not impressed.
The Fremen call it the Shai-Houndlud
I didn’t 😮 do now
There’s a stardog waiting in the sky He’d like to come and meet us But he thinks he’d blow our minds
I would love to have a vinyl album cover with Bowie on it!
We don’t have kids so we make sure we have one happy spoiled longboye
Thanks! We really did have just a couple of minutes before the sun dropped below the horizon. My partner, Bowie, and I sprinted to the beach to get the shot :)
From there I leave it to the autofocus and burst mode and hope I have one keeper.
We do a Bowie calendar for friends and family (it’s a great motivation to take photos). We were ready to send it to the printers, but last night we dropped this photo in for May.
So yeah, it’ll be on about 35 walls 😃
Not sure which would be scarier!
Bowie can pull off any outfit
Very cool. I was proud of myself for pointing a camera at the Milky Way for 15 seconds. This is a whole other level. 👍
Absolutely! We shot this about 20 minutes north of Haliburton, Ontario (I was there for a bike race).
The camera is a Sony a6700 (it’s an APS-C camera so make sure to adjust if you’re shooting full-frame), the lens is a Sigma 16mm F1.4 prime lens .
Shot @ ISO 100, f2.8
Turns out it was only a 15 minute exposure (I think my 30 minute exposure was on my film camera, oooops)
I found the north star by using the Photopills app, I also used the app to figure out what exposure to shoot at. It’s a great app for calculating exposure, finding the milky way, and planning shoots.
I brought along a tripod, and used the (terrible) Sony app to remotely control the length of the exposure in bulb mode.
Previous to this I took plenty of shorter star photos (15 seconds, ISO 1600, F1.4) which turned out really well. For those shots I just used a 2 second shot timer to prevent camera shake when activating the shutter.
