Lake Cuyamaca Milky Way

Lake Cuyamaca Milky Way

A few friends invited me out to photograph the milky way at Lake Cuyamaca. The lake is about 60 miles inland from San Diego which is far enough away that the impact of light pollution is minimized and you can see the milky way with the naked eye. If you've never experienced this, it is quite a site to behold.

This was my first time doing any sort of astrophotography and it was challenging from a technical perspective. With nothing but starlight to illuminate the scene I couldn't see anything through my viewfinder and I needed extremely long exposures to even record anything at all. Great fun. I predict I'll be doing more of this.

Purchase a Print

 

Purchase a beautiful collectible print made with the finest archival papers and pigment inks. The prints are made on a heavyweight acid free paper with a smooth satin finish. Each print will be signed using an archival pen in the margin beneath the image. I love printing with fine art papers and this is my preferred medium. You can learn more about how I make my prints here.
