Description

I realize this venue may not be the place for this kind of astrophoto, but I wanted to include it in my gallery nonetheless. I like to experiment with all kinds of photography and this was the first time I was fortunate to have a model while photographing the stars. This scene was captured at the Uyuni de Salar in Bolivia where the vast salt flats are flooded after rains in March and sets up the scene for wonderful reflection photography, day and night. There were many clouds around but they also diffused the stars and made them even more dramatic. The model was a participant with my group and was doing self portraits and graciously allowed me to photograph her was well. She stood there for what seemed like an eternity as the cold 5 degree wind blew and standing in inches of water. This was a single 15 second shot, f/1.8, ISO 3200.
