[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Cecco1970:
Venus and Jupiter Conjunction .. Incredible shots and close-ups with only accessories

For fans of astronomy ..

The conjunction of Venus and Jupiter on 30 June captured with smartphone and exclusive accessories for the phone (telephoto lenses)

* For people like me who does not have a telescope, but he always wanted to see stars or planets in the sky, closer, but especially also to photograph here is an example of what can be achieved by combining the right accessories, suitable applications, but also some patience and probably luck: p

Below I leave you a sequence of shots last night increasingly magnified, with the aim of showcasing the two planets and their junction very close range

These images to me mean new limits are exceeded photo with the smartphone after the incredible photos of stars with close-ups to the Pleiades obtained in a particularly clear sky of January this year (see the pictures here 01/14/2015 http: //goo.gl/AY01c5)

With this new perspective close I plan to show that it is not easy, indeed .. there are particular difficulties in obtaining these images that go beyond having these accessories and which are the ones I did produce a number of shots to be thrown away!

The shot in the narrow field, the focus and the subjects that these enlargements moving because the Earth's rotation, make this job a lot more difficult than what you can imagine, but the end results have come with the help of a little luck and patience!

Finally, I hope that the Google translator has done a decent job having described many things, so excuse me for any errors!
