entry description
The photograph is taken in a field in Castejon de Valdejasa (Zaragoza) -Spain-. To be able to take this photo it is necessary to see enough stars. Therefore, light pollution should be low and moonlight should be weak. Additionallly, there should be no clouds and there should be a somewhat elevate temperature. In this way, the camera battery lasts longer. I took the photo in August with 4% moonlight. In the camera I had a grip with two batteries that allowed me almost 5 uninterrupted work hours. The picture is the result of the fusion of 172 consecutive photographs of 100 seconds of duration each.about the photographer
My name is Fabio Galvez. I live in Zaragoza (Spain) and I am a graduate in Geography. I began with landscape photography during my university stage as a way to study Geomorphology and Topography. I changed my perspective and my way of working over time to be less functional and more creative. I care now more about aesthetics and composition and I try to make each of my photos unique showing an own style. Nowadays, I consider that my work has reached enough maturity, even so, I continue working and studying in order to obtain the best possible result enjoying at all times every one of my tripsback to gallery
