Watching the Night Sky

Published by Diana Tula · August 9th 2012

Have you been thinking of getting into night sky photography or planning a romantic star gazing with your loved one? Then make sure to watch the sky during August 12 to the 13, 2012. The Perseid meteor shower will be at its peak and you could witness between 60 to 100 meteors per hour as they fly by.

While you wait, here is an awe-inspiring time lapse video by Knate Myers. See a hundred billion stars rise.

Our blog is a place to promote 500px photographers. If you have a tutorial, story, photo series, DIY, etc. to share send us an email. We are looking forward to your ideas and photo experiences.
