– Deep Sky Astrophotography for Beginners<\/a>. If you don’t have those expensive telescopes and tracking devices, you can try using image stacking techique to get some good results<\/a>.<\/p>\n

– For long trips,\u00c2\u00a0I usually do some homework and prepare a spreadsheet with sunrise\/sunset times for each location for each day. It is good to be prepared, but\u00c2\u00a0I was\u00c2\u00a0always hoping to have a more dynamic\u00c2\u00a0way of\u00c2\u00a0determining sunset and sunrise times.\u00c2\u00a0UTMDATA for S60 Symbian-based mobile phones<\/a>\u00c2\u00a0– this small freeware application runs on the mobile phone, can read current GPS position from the built-in or external receiver and calculate current sunrise and sunset times.<\/p>\n

– I have\u00c2\u00a0also spent some time this week, exploring different ways to fit graduated filters on super wide-angle lenses like Canon 14mm F2.8 II. Here are some useful forum topics and guides:<\/p>\n

– Using a Cokin X-Pro filter on the Sigma 12-24 lens<\/a>
\n– DPReview forum: 14-24 with graduated ND filters<\/a>
\n– DPReview forum: Help! Polarizing Filter On The 14mm II Lens<\/a>
\n– FredMiranda forum: Nikon 14-24 on 1Ds3 + filters question<\/a>
\n– FredMiranda forum: dusk ambience<\/a><\/p>\n

I think I’ll try to make my own holder for Cokin X-Pro filters that would work on 14mm. I’ll post my results.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
