Love the warmth on the cool background. Pure wisdom and well done Shashin.You know the problem--you really need to get to those exotic locations to find those magical moments. Those one in a lifetime events you just can't plan for. Or you can just simply learn to look up while your wife is shopping...
The only why to get pin point stars is with a tracker. I would recommend the Vixen Polarie that can be mounted on a tripod and is the size of a 35mm film camera. It not only has sidereal rate for the stars, but also a 1/2 sidereal for landscape/skyscapes that give you double the exposure time based on your tolerance for blur.Anyone got any tips for improving on this? I'm going to try a lower ISO next time and a slightly shorter exposure time as there is a bit of movement in the stars.
