Taken with my Samsung NX 1 mirrorless camera, using<br />
a Samsung 16mm F2.4 lens. Full manual mode setting,<br />
f3.2 aperture and 16mm focal length (which is 24mm in<br />
a full frame camera). Long exposure time of 20s, ISO:<br />
3200, set up on a tripod with timer to avoid camera<br />
shake. Image saved in Raw format and edited in<br />
Lightroom 5 to bring up the contrast and colour.<br />
Taken from the top of the cable car at 9.30pm on a<br />
cold September night in Queenstown, New Zealand. I<br />
wanted to get a good shot of the Milky way, away from<br />
light pollution and try to have mountains and sky in the<br />
same shot. I wasn’t planning to get a shot of the<br />
aurora Australis also, so that was an added bonus, and<br />
this, added to a shooting star (or a satellite…) just<br />
added to the shot. Worth the cold ears and toes.<br />

Author: Chris McKeown<br />
Taken with my Samsung NX 1 mirrorless camera,<br />
using a Samsung 16mm F2.4 lens. Full manual<br />
mode setting, f5 aperture and 18mm focal length<br />
(which is 27mm in a full frame camera). Long<br />
exposure time of 25s, ISO: 100, set up on a tripod<br />
with timer to avoid camera shake and using a<br />
Lee Sev5n “Big Stopper” 10 step long exposure filter<br />
plus a Lee 0.6ND Hard Grad graduated filter.<br />
Image saved in Raw format and edited in Lightroom<br />
5 to bring up the contrast and colour.<br />
Taken from the top of the Mt Victoria Lookout,<br />
Wellington, New Zealand at 7am in early October.<br />
I wanted to get a nice blur on the clouds, so used<br />
a long exposure, which given the amount of light<br />
in the morning, meant I needed to use a Lee “Big<br />
Stopper” long exposure filter.<br />
