As the new moon approached, it was time to head out to the desert. I caravaned to Fossil Falls with another photographer with the goal of capturing a full Milky Way arch (a starbow). I got everything prepared at the parking lot and we found a good spot with a nice foreground of rocks to shoot. After shooting the sky and doing some light painting of the nearby lava rocks, we waited until twilight to get some better light for the more distant foreground.
The next weekend, I headed to Red Rock alone to capture (this was more of a proof of concept since I’d never attempted it before) a 360 degree panorama that I could use for a Tiny Planet projection. It took about 2 1/2 hours to shoot (520 exposures) the sky and the foreground and I actually ended up shooting the foreground past astronomical twilight and had to match up the exposure on the final panels in the panorama.
PLAYTIME POLITICS-Echo Park is no stranger to me. As a boy in the early 1960s, my family would go there, a favorite of my dad who worked downtown and knew the park.
It is a special park, a gem, nestled in a glen, giving the feeling of being far removed from the rest of the city. I take out-of-town visitors there.
It is no wonder the group homeless people recently removed from the park found it so appealing. I last visited the Echo Park Lake, pre-COVID lockdown, on a Sunday afternoon spilling into the early evening. It was filled with people, which could easily number toward or over a thousand. It was a community of families, of younger and older adults. There were street vendors.
