Grand Tetons
Bry and I spent last week exploring the Tetons and Yellowstone National Park, we drove up the night of the Perseid Meteor Shower peak and had a great evening taking in the magnificent view of the Grand Tetons from String Lake. I had rented the new Nikkor 20mmS lens for the Z7 and decided to try and put together a 360 degree pano, it's been a long while since I've done one of these. While I work on the insanely hard challenge of stitching and blending the tracked sky/untracked foreground shots I figured I'd at least put together a smaller pano of just the mountains and bridge we shot from. Taking all the shots for the 360 took so long that by the time I finished the sky and got to the mountains the moon had already fully risen. I normally don't do this kinds of composites/blends, but didn't give myself much of a choice with how I executed the timing of everything. All in all it was a fantastic evening, I didn't mask in the meteors on this shot, but I'll try and put them in the 360 pano later on.
8 exposures went into this image, all shot with a Nikon Z7 and Nikkor 20mmS on a Sky Watcher Star Adventurer Tracking mount. All exposures are 1 minute at ISO 1600 and f1.8.
