Wish I did HardSnow, but just have worked life out so I can spend a fair bit of time up there during the season! cheese

Deano on the money with the trail being too straight - but I’m fairly sure it’s a small plane, on the RAW you can spot the navigation lights blinking. You do see a lot of shooting stars up there when it’s clear though, very stoke-worthy!

bish, how do you manage to capture the stars without them streaking? Everytime I shoot the night sky they appear like streaks (earths movement, cant prevent it lol)

 

Hey guys thanks heaps for the props for last weeks photos! So stoked.
I’m sure if anyone was at the snow to see the rain destroy the resorts yesterday you would be just as stoked to see the
snow absolutely puke today.

Here’s a couple shots that I got in between work! Frothing for some freshies tomorrow.


7th August, Thredbo River AGAIN


7th August, Sledding Anyone??

its not a long exposure, well the way i would do it is this,

you take your long exposure for the land area, then take another shorter shot to expose for the stars. stitch them together and bam

Blizzard, I’ll start a thread in the photography forum to answer your question.

Johnlaker, I like the rocket over the battleship - very nice!

Here’s some of the results of a very average and wet weekend at Hotham.
