It’s Bon Odori Festival yesterday 17th July 2011. I did not go there this year and since I have nothing to do, I just compile up my picture and make a video. Have fun listening to the music and thanks for watching.
We when to another Milky Way shooting with the same group at the same place. Again a very lucky day for us, clear sky without moon. This time I try to put up some different perspective on my picture composition, in this photo I place my camera behind another camera. A Sony shooting Canon shooting Milky. Awesome huh lol.
I’ve shot the milky way with this composition before here but the foreground is pitch black. This time I’m using a torch light put up some light painting so I would get the foreground come to live. The flower pointing towards the milky is just so nice.
Before we when off, we take 1 portrait picture behind the milky. In this picture, we place an LED light behind the car to light up the car behind and we are using our hand phone to light up the front. This picture is taken with Canon 5D Mark II with 17-40 F4 L lens from mengsys. We are quite happy with the result we get this time. I will go there again someday with a time-lapse shot. Till see you again next time. Bye.

I’m quite happy my first outing for Milky way is a SUCCESS..lol. Although I’m only using Kit Lens which given quite a fair picture but still, it’s MILKY WAY!!!. Picture were shot at 25sec exposure at F3.5 and 1600 ISO. Try to get the best lens you have, the bigger the aperture (smallest F number) the better.
Place to shoot milky way? Just look at Google Map and browse to location out of city area, and go there. Make sure there’s no street lamp or any light pollution.
It’s been years since the last time I visit Penang Hill. I still remember the last time I visit which is during my secondary school days.. yup it’s that long. Any changes from the last time I visit and now? Well not much, changes was the Train (yup I did not take any photo of the train..lol). After going up the hill what can you do? Nothing..lol. Nothing fun up there, only was the cool breeze during early morning we reach.
What I like for shooting sunrise here was we were eventually above the cloud which makes it cool huh..lol. We can see the town below the cloud and the sun above it, a three layers.
Here my friend trying to shoot the sunrise, a silhouette shot. I love the sun bursting beside him.
While we going down, I try to take a zoom effect shot, does the train going down look fast? haha.
Anyway for those who wish to shoot sunrise here, the earliest train departure is 6.30am. Just barely make it when reaches the top takes about 15min going up.
