Milky Way Timelapse - Jaubari

Milky Way timelapses are a timeless way to capture the natural beauty of our galaxy. Milky Way photographs, either stacked or single, can only capture a single moment in time. Whereas a timelapse can provide a real sense of how large and beautiful the band looks as it crosses the night sky in video format. Discover what gear you need, what settings to use for Milky Way time-lapse videos, and tips for how to create a time-lapse.

Multicoloured Star Trails

Continuing from last week, today is about photographing Multicoloured Star Trails on the Singalila Ridge. Late in March I had explored some dark sky sites at Nirmal, in collaboration with HyTiCos, but those were from Light Polluted areas. The Singalila Ridge in contrast is a Bortle 1 Sky which allows for some spectacular multi coloured star trails. Read to know how.

Brown Wood Owl

A large, solemn-looking brown owl belonging to the earless owl genus Strix with deep black eyes varying in plumage throughout its extensive range. It always has a dark-bordered pale face, fine barring on wings and underparts, and sooty areas around the eyes. It inhabits lowland and montane broadleaf forests and adjacent edges. Gives a short burst of loud, reverberating hoots.
