In 2018, I shot a few Milky Way pictures at Assateague Island seashore, MD which I had processed using one image at a time. Today I used a new way of processing these by stacking multiple images in a software called 'Sequator' on Windows. Amazing noise reduction with this technique.. what do you think?

This tree was particularly spooky to be next to at night!😄.. I remember standing there all alone in darkness and using my phone to light it up a little!

White Sands Photography: 3 Part series

Part 3 of 3: Night in the Desert
If you apply for a Special permit to be in the park at night / if you are camping, you are all set to get a different type of experience! The darkness here, is 'Blinding'! You better know where you are going, so plan ahead when there is light, pay attention, and be safe.. An app like Stellarium or Photopills can help plan your shot. The reward is up there for grabs.. the glorious starry sky! You can see the Milky way with your naked eye, and your camera sensor kept open for 20-30 seconds can see it even better! From here on, it is your imagination as to how you compose your foreground and the Milky Way📸..

As the dawn tiptoes in, the sunlight breaks through, birds start chirping, and the cycle repeats.

White Sands Photography: 3 Part series.

Part 2 of 3: Sunset in the Desert
Sunsets and Sunrises are simply Magical here.. with the backdrop of dark-rocked San Andres (West) and Sacramanto Mountains (East) lining the bed of these white Gypsum sand dunes.. It’s all about being there, finding the right dunes, that have not been walked on.. and nature unfolds the magic right in front of your eyes! As the sun sinks behind the mountains basking the sky in that glorious golden glow, the blue hour follows, turning the dunes purple! And you just keep clicking...

Again, caution + gps + water. I didn't realize how far I went inside the dunefield to find a good spot.. It's only when I started walking back, I realized how many dunes I had to cross while it was getting darker by the minute!

White Sands Photography: 3 Part series.

Part 1 of 3: Day in the Desert
White Sands in New Mexico is world’s largest - 275 sq miles of rare Gypsum sand dunefield. During the day, there is a lot of play with light-n-shadow, contours, lines, .. It’s all about discovering these artforms in this vast area nature created over the last 10,000+ years. It is humanly impossible to reach/capture all of them, but here is a glimpse of a few.

Once you enter the dunes, it is easy to get ‘greedy’, or get lost - both in space and time.. so make sure to pay attention, keep a GPS device with you, and most importantly Water!
