Night photo of my truck

[EWhytsell]

I thought I'd post a different type of photo. Photography and especially astrophotography has been a serious hobby for a long time and one night while I was fooling around with my truck I noticed the sky was very clear with a nearly full moon so I decided to try some long exposures. Wind was gusting pretty good so I got some motion blur, but overall it came out pretty cool.

Very cool! Looks like daytime, except for the stars.

Nice work. Has a bit of an old feel to it.

MV Night Photos

Can you give us some info on which camera you use and a little detail on setting/exposure times.

Really like to learn more about this.

That's a beautiful shot and I'm learning to capture MV's in pictures but at night they usually turn out like this.

Sure, I was using a Canon 5Dmk2 with a 50mm lens at F/2.2 10/sec shutter time at ISO 1600. For shooting under moon light a white balance setting of "Day Light" typically gives the most accurate color. I was on a pretty sturdy tripod as well.
