I’m hiking for some astrophotography shots
Yes I’m bringing a light and a backup light
No, I’m not completely insane
This is why we need to all start using 24 hour. I’m leaving for a hike at 16:00. Great, I won’t be coming, thank you for being clear and concise and avoiding an unnecessary conversation about exactly what time.
I’d be horrified if it was actually 4AM. I could never wake that early, let alone for a hike
I head to the beach maybe at 8, no later than 9, during the summer to make sure I get a good spot setup before the stars really come out. Could be as early as 5 in the winter. I lost interest in astrophotography though and have found joy hunting DSOs with binoculars and generally just existing
Astrophotography gang
Plenty of daylight left to go hiking at 4PM.
It was about a 3 hour drive and a 12 mile trail.
Those woods got dark fast.
Also turns out that wolves are back on the area after being gone for decades. That was a fun discovery. I didn’t take any pictures of them, I was more concerned with getting out of there in one piece.
