This photo turned out pretty cool. It was taken at night, and the moon almost looks like the sun. Even got a lens flare from it. This wasn’t hard at all, it’s just a long exposure with the camera on a tripod. At first glance, you’d think it’s just a underexposed scene of sand and the sun, but in actuality it’s a bright photo of the sand and the moon. The stars make you do a double take, for sure.
If you’re going to try this with your camera, make sure you have your camera in manual mode. Start playing around with various apertures and shutter speeds. The best way to learn is to just try. In my experience, trial and error have given me more progress than having someone tell me what to do.
If you don’t have a tripod, just steady your camera on something and use the timer to start the exposure. And I always recommend using your maximum resolution your camera has. You never know when you’ll capture a spectacular shot and it would really stink if it was low-res instead of hi-res.
