I just finished an all-night photoshoot of the stars and the Milky Way... I'm excited to see the images!
How cool! Did you get to a dark area to shoot?
I did. I went to a local park that has really dark skies. Do you know if there are special places for people to take photos of the night sky?
Do you mean International Dark Sky Parks?
Yes! That's it. I would love to visit one. How many are there, do you know?
I'm not for sure how many there are- but a lot. Big Bend and Arches National Parks are two
I've visited Big Bend a long time ago, before I started taking photos. Which one of those parks is better for photos?
Big Bend is one of darkest spots on the globe! Sounds like that one
Well then, I guess I should make another visit. I need to upgrade my photography equipment too, but I should plan a trip there.
Seems worth it. Some of Big Bend ranks as a 1 in some areas on the Bortle Scale
That's awesome. I loved the mountains there as well... very pretty to photograph.
