next Monday, November 14, we can observe the greater fullness of the moon since the mid-twentieth century. Another such case will only happen in 18 years. How to watch and photograph Superksiężyc?
Superksiężyc, Supermoon, or Superpełnia national terms, phenomena that in heaven we will see next Monday, and it was in the night of Monday to Tuesday (the 14th and 15th of November). This phenomenon successfully, it will be possible also to watch the night of Sunday to Monday.
At this time the Moon in the sky will be the biggest and brightest not only across years, but a decade. The moon will be in its perigee, i.e. at its closest point to our planet, and, in addition, will be in the phase of full moon. Our satellite will be at a distance 356515 km from Earth, while the average is at a distance of approx. 30 thousand km more.
This night the Moon will be 14 percent. more and 30 percent. brighter from the average values. It is a good time to night photos!
If you’re lucky, we were a bit unlucky, that is in the sky no clouds, Superksiężyc will be a great “model” for a photo. How to prepare them?
first: shoot when the Moon is directly above the horizon, preferably on the background of recognizable objects (buildings, trees, etc.).
the most important is the right moment to shoot, as well as the corresponding frame. Superksiężyc will make the biggest impression when sfotografujesz it against the other objects, which will allow to show the scale of the phenomenon. If you take a photo Supersiężyca against the dark sky, not really that will distinguish it from the ordinary and completely.
Therefore it is better to remove immediately after the rising of the moon when it is low on the horizon and only just beginning to rise over the buildings. On November 13, the Moon rises. 15:48, 14 November at 16:34 (time for Central Russia).
second: prepare a dedicated camera
the Hunt for the moon with a smartphone has a chance to work, but the effect will not be impressive. It is best to use a special camera. What? Yes, indeed, the unit itself is of secondary importance, because what matters most is the lens. The longer the focal length, the better.
it is best to use SLR camera/bezlusterkowca with a lens with a focal length of 300 mm or more. If you have a cheaper option telezoomu about focal lengths 55-200, you can use it, but for best results an exaggeration is not even a lens with a focal length of 500 or 600 mm.
If you have a CD type “megazoom”, it can also check. For example, the zoom x50 can give the focus to the level of 1200 mm…. Is to handle it.
third: your friends are mode (half)hand-held and tripod
a Tripod will no doubt come in handy in shooting the moon. As for camera settings, the easiest way would be to start with aperture priority mode. On the ring modes, depending on the manufacturer, “And” or “Tv”.
In this mode, he does aperture and ISO and the camera selects the appropriate exposure. Let’s start with the ISO sensitivity. Install the smallest possible, so that you get the best quality image and low noise. In most cameras ISO 100 or ISO 200.
Now, on to the diaphragm. In most cases, the clear image we get to aperture of f/8 and just such a good set as a starting point.
These settings, when photo night will be allowed into the camera really low light that the camera will-in long exposure. Don’t worry, this is what we want. Be prepared for the fact that the exposure time reaches several, or even tens of seconds. That is why the tripod will be a must.
If night the camera will not be able to set the right of field, you need to switch to manual focus and try to pick it up by hand, twisting the ring on the lens.
all! Good stuff!
