24mm<br />

Author: Chris McKeown<br />

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 />

Literally taken out of the window of my house in<br />

December afternoon. A favourite bird getting<br />

stuck in to the Flax flowers in the garden.<br />

NX 18-200mm F3.5-6.3<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 />
