I always love how the skies are the most dramatic I always love how the skies are the most dramatic as the monsoon approaches with its full fury and when it retreats. This is from today morning on a quick trip to Bandra Fort. Long-ish exposure with a ND filter.

As the monsoons cover Maharashtra, it's goodbye to As the monsoons cover Maharashtra, it's goodbye to starscapes this season (unless I can escape to the desert) and landscapes as well till the initial fury of the monsoons subsides.

But I do have some other interesting ideas in mind till I can shoot the verdant green landscapes of Maharashtra, keep following for more

This is a single 20s exposure shot at 2000 ISO. The noise is definitely visible, really wish I had taken a few more of this scene to test and see if stacking would have resulted in lower noise

Star trails and Fireflies I also tried a series wi Star trails and Fireflies
I also tried a series with the same tree, but processed for star trails
It's amazing how processing treatment for the same scene can result in a dramatically different image

Under a starlit sky with a million lightning bugs Under a starlit sky with a million lightning bugs

A tree is lit up with thousands of fireflies with the milky way as a backdrop.

If there is one favourite image from the trip this is it !!! Creating this image was a learning experience for me and certainly would not have been possible without the fabulous Firefly 15mm F2.4 lens from @irixlens. Totally in love with the results of this lens, even though it's a manual focus lens. For those who want to know, this is a composite of 70 different exposures to correctly expose of the night sky and the tree.

Star trails over the lake While we waited for it t Star trails over the lake
While we waited for it to become dark and the fireflies to come out, I tried my hand at shooting this landscape of the lake. While the stars were a bit faint as the moon was still out and I didn't take as many exposures as needed for a proper star trail, this is still one of my favourite images from the trip. It's also the first time I used the 15mm Firefly from @irixlens and boy was it a joy to use !!!

The Calm Lake While we waited for the sun to set, The Calm Lake
While we waited for the sun to set, I used the time to try out some landscape photos. This one of the calm and serene lake was shot with a graduated ND filter from Nisi, that I was fortunate to get a chance to try. Thanks @dcpexpeditions @nisiindiaofficial for the opportunity

Last weekend did a short overnight trip to Bhandar Last weekend did a short overnight trip to Bhandardara to shoot the spectacle of a million lightning bugs lighting up the trees. The trip was somewhat of a disappointment, was a bit sad to see one of my favourite spots overrun by tourism. But still managed to get a few interesting shots. So stay tuned for more ....
