Self portrait while photographing Milky-way

Self portrait

12th of August (if i am correct) The most beautiful night for Milky way. There was new moon no light pollution so the stars and milky way were really visible ! I love astrophotography it's my favourite type of photography. It's nice to relax your head and just long shutter photos. This is just me while taking photos of milky-way on my tripod. 226.jpg

amazing photo there.. may i ask what lens did you use?? and how you manage to obtain focus while self potrait in the dark?? and how long the exposure to take the photo?

This was on my second camera with 16-35mm Canon lens, you focus on the brightest star, you rotate focus until the brightest star becomes visible circle. Shutter speed was 20 seconds, so make sure that person on the photo is still for 20 seconds ;D

ah.. that's a great lesson there... i try that once but i dont know where to pinpoint my focus at night since my lack of knowledge of photography... thank you dude... great photo there

Thank you :)

That is a very cool image Weber, nicely done. I'm very impressed with the composition. Did you use a remote or time delay to get into position?

Time delay of 10 seconds :)

Cool thanks for the info.
