Every night, when we look up at the sky, we can always see beautiful stars. Due to the more impurities in the urban air, the sight is not good enough, and the starry sky that may be seen is not so bright. But this cannot stop us from fantasizing about the starry sky.

In ancient times, people were full of fantasies about the starry sky. Because there is no developed observation equipment, the ancients could only observe the starry sky through the eye.

They do more to observe the stars in the sky with the eye and make some predictions through the arrangement and changes of the stars.

With the rise of human technology and the emergence of advanced devices such as astronomical telescopes, we began to understand that the stars in the sky are all planets.

The reason why the stars we see with the eye are so small is that they are so far away from the Earth.

The Galaxy is a huge star system, with more than 200 billion stars. The sun is an ordinary member of the galaxy. All the stars we see are almost members of the Milky Way.

We can see more than 6,000 stars throughout the year due to the influence of the earth's atmosphere and interstellar material and human vision. But this only takes a small part of the galaxy star.

In fact, when we look up at the sky, we cannot see the sky itself. Our site needs to pass through the atmosphere. The atmosphere is always tightly around us, moving and rotating around the earth at an uncertain speed.

When the star's light passes through the atmosphere, it will reflect and hit different air layers. Therefore, the lights reflected by the stars are different. But not all planets will shine, only stars will glow.

Because the universe is very large, only those bright stars can be visible to the eye on the earth. Coupled with the increase in light pollution and atmospheric pollution, it is difficult to see the stars on the earth, let alone see the starry sky or the galaxy.

If we want to see the starry sky in many cities, we must use the astronomical telescope.

On earth, the number of stars we see is related to geographical latitude. In high latitudes of the north and south poles, the sky is the smallest.

At the North Pole, you can only see the stars in the northern half, and the southern half will never be higher than the horizon. In Antarctica, you can only see the southern half of the sky, and the stars in the northern half never rise.

As the latitude decreases, the sky part you can see is getting bigger and larger, and more and more stars can be seen. In the equatorial area, you can see the entire sky, including the North and South poles, and the most stars here.

The starry sky often gives people a gorgeous and shocking visual experience, so it has attracted many people to join the ranks of shooting the starry sky. So, for beginners, how to perform starry photography?

There are countless stars in the Galaxy. The position of these stars will change due to the movement of the month. Therefore, we must first determine the shooting time.

The photography equipment required for Starry Photography is not complicated, just preparing a tripod and wide-angle lens. These basic photography equipment are necessary for friends who like scenery photography. But if you want to take beautiful star photos, this is not easy.

The best place for shooting the starry sky is the field or rural areas far away from the city. Those cities with severe light pollution can affect the shooting effect, especially in areas with severe haze.
