How to photograph the Winter Solstice from your phone
Another great photo opportunity occurs Monday after sundown: the Winter Solstice and the sighting of the Christmas Star.
You can use a smartphone to capture what is promised to be the closest visible conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn in 800 years. The planets are expected to appear as one large star, lighting up the sky. Shooting a night sky is one of the most amazing things you can witness, says travel photographer Austin Mann, who specializes in shooting night skies with his iPhone.
You don t need a fancy DSLR or mirrorless camera to capture the light show. Mann and other photographers say you can get a great shot on a smartphone.
