The first night we were out camping I tried my hand at some astrophotography. After setting up my and noticing that I would not be able to avoid the trees at any angle, I started trying to figure out the exposures. I kicked myself once I realized that I would only be able to shoot for 30 seconds since I forgot my cable release at home. So I cranked up the ISO and shot a f/4 hoping that I would get something that wasn’t going to be that noisy. After a bit of processing this is what I got.
