Lens whacking the universe - D800 14mm - explored

Newer Older

This photo was purely created with some lens whacking !
two tripods and rubber bands to help control a repetitive movement and keep the center point focused
took me a 100 shots to get the motion correctly and about 200 shots repeating it for the star trails :)

Please leave comments as this is an all new technique to me :D

    Just saw this blogged- certainly a great application of an interesting technique.

    How was your sensor after a couple of leaky hours on the beach?

  14. Teo Morabito 9 months ago | reply

    To say the truth my D800 had oil on the sensor when i bought it, so I needed to get it cleaned, so yea, figured i could do that before cleaning it :P
    It's all good now :)
