Double Arch Panorama at Night by WaynePinkston

Panorama of Double Arch in Arches National Park, Utah, This is a re-edit from an image I was not happy with. There are 20 vertical images stitched together in photoshop, taken with a Sigma 15 mm f 2.8 Fisheye lens. The idea was to get the openings of both arches, as well as the Milky Way seen through the opening in the “roof”. Taken with 30 sec exposures, f 2.8, ISO 6400, Canon 6D. I removed as much distortion as possible in photoshop, but there is always going to some distortion when you are trying to make a spherical object fit into a rectangle!

Double Arch by WaynePinkston

An Arch of Stars and an Arch of Stone. Panorama Of Broken Arch at night in Arches National Park, Utah, USA. This is a re-edit of an image from last summer that I was not happy with. There was a lot of airglow (green) that night. Previously I thought this interfered with the beauty of the sky and tried to get rid of it. In this version I have left it unchanged except for increasing the contrast and vibrance, The glow on the horizon is light pollution from Moab, Utah.

This is a panorama of 24 vertical images stitches together in photoshop. Acquired with a Rokinon 24 mm f/1.4 lens at f 1.8, 20 sec exposures, ISO 6400.

I am working on a new web site for night photography called After Midnight Photography .
