The older I get the crankier I am @stevenjmagner
On Tuesday I had shot with a few local photographers at Mount Laguna in San Diego. We shot for about an hour and a half and after experiencing ridiculously strong winds we decided to call it a night and walk back down to our cars. I had slept very little these past few nights and after a night in Malibu of shooting late with Kevin Moto only to wake up early Tuesday for work in San Diego… Needless to say I was extremely tired and needed a place to catch some Z’s for a few hours. I drove for a bit and found a turn out that seemed to be hard to find.
Well I was wrong and after about an hour of shut eye I was woken up to screeching tires burning out all around which scared the crap out of me. Totally confused and on high alert I picked myself up and decided to take advantage of the situation. I drove back up to the Mount, with winds seemingly died down a bit and the milky way rising perpendicular I tracked for about 20 minutes.

This is incredible.
What inspired you to take up this form of photography?

Thank you @oddnugget! I dunno, I've been living in cities for 12 years now and miss seeing the stars. I just want to remember them for as long as I can sometimes
Wow, that's awesome that you've found a way to immortalize your memories of the stars. I don't live in a city, but the clouds tend to hide the stars more often than not.
It's the little things sometimes that keep me going :)
Beautiful! Those colors are just so lovely.
Thank you @christiesnelson!
