I have been interested in photography for almost a decade
now.
But, in all 10 years I could never get a nice location to click a starry
night sky.
This time I traveled to Ladakh, in India. I have heard so
many stories of a perfectly clear sky with million twinkling stars.
I sat with my wide angle camera lens and waited for the
temporary clouds to clear on this dark night, and I was about to take a perfect
shot, when this crazy man turned on his car headlights.
And now my picture is bright and ruined with no stars. Sigh!

India is a good place to go. I myself prefer the Alvord Desert in Southeastern Oregon. Total darkness and no people for 30 miles. It's...incredible.
ReplyDeletewow...i hope that i get to travel there some day :-)

I made a special trip up a mountain in Tenerife to see the stars in their 100% uncontaminated sky. I picked the only night in the whole year when it rained. I feel your pain.
ReplyDeleteOh man! I totally feel you...
DeleteThanks for dropping by Liz :-)
...and thus there'll be the ruined moment with a ruined picture.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Norma.
