RE: Small town glow while hunting down Perseid meteors - Original longexposurephotography
That is awesome. I assume you have a tripod? Unless I set my camera down my longexposures end up a bit blurry. Also, how do you keep the stars from streaking? Mine always end up a bit streaked, I just assumed it was the rotation of the Earth lol
Oh for 30 seconds I definitely had to use a tripod ;) When using a super wide angle lens like this, the stars won't streak until you hit maybe 10 minutes or more of exposure since they are teeny specs. Now if you were to use a zoom lens for 30 seconds then yes there would be star trails :)
Gotcha, I just have a phone camera, no wide angles here!
