Star Trail Photography Tutorial | Landscape Photography | Isle of Man

Star trail photography can seem like a daunting undertaking if you’ve never tried it before but it’s a lot easier than many people realise. In this vlog I provide a star trail photography tutorial showcasing my own techniques and approaches to taking these exciting landscape photography images. I head out to the Point of Ayre which is the most northerly tip of the Isle of Man to capture the moving stars over a small lighthouse. This is a shot I’ve been after for a while now so when the right conditions presented themselves I was straight out there. The Isle of Man is well known for it's dark skies granting fantastic astrophotography conditions for all budding night sky photographers. What settings are best to use? What weather conditions are needed? Star Trail processing - how do you do it? I’ll do my best to answer all of these questions and more. This video is my tips / advice / explanation summary.
