Milky Way Above Mt Blanc - by Roberto Bertero

Night Photography on the Alps Here you can see a sector of the Milky Way passing above the French side of the Mont Blanc massif. Night shot, taken on September 13th 2012, from the shores of the beautiful alpine Lake Cheserys (2.211 m), high up in the Aiguilles Rouges above the Chamonix valley (France).To whom it may concern, I'll be posting soon another image with a perfect mirror reflection of the Mont Blanc massif in the still water of the lake. Anyhow, I hope you'll take a few moments to see the light conditions of this shot. Please note the amount of light that a good camera can record during an ordinary long exposure, around 30 seconds at high ISO...It manages to capture not only the light of the distant Chamonix, but, somehow, it seems the universe itself is producing light... filling with a bright veil of hope the dark rippled waters of the lake. I've found as very evocative this subtle dialogue b/w light & darkness. Obviously light just barely perceptible to the naked eye! _____________________ ©Roberto Bertero, All Rights Reserved.

Mont Blanc in the Mirror - by Roberto Bertero

Night Photography on the Alps This is the French side of the Mont Blanc massif mirroring in the still waters of lake Cheserys (2.211 m), high up in the Aiguilles Rouges above the Chamonix valley.Night shot, taken on September 13th 2012, at 10:07 p.m. Waters of alpine lakes are not always still as well as not always in motion. Let's say that in ordinary weather conditions they are just alternating phases in accordance with the winds. Sometimes, even in this Cheserys area, I've seen photographers observing the waters a bit rippled... and then moving on, looking for other places... rather odd, I would say :-) Since the patience to wait is definitely an essential component in this field. Patience is basic also while we pay attention in reading the phases of the wind, somehow predicting the moments of quiet, having everything already setup to take the shot. Usually, during the moments of wind I just define perfectly the composition and the camera setting, in order to be totally ready when everything will start to calm down. This kind of photography with starry sky rarely exceeds the 30sec of exposure (because of Earth's rotation), therefore the fact to be operating in such a relatively "short" time increases considerably the chances to get water totally still during that specific time window. Sometimes it's possible, sometimes not. In any case it's always worth trying :-) _____________________ ©Roberto Bertero, All Rights Reserved.

Gran Paradiso @ Night - by Roberto Bertero

3rd & last shot dedicated to the gorgeous North face of the Gran Paradiso group. In my previous shots I've already documented daylight, sunset, the blue hour... so, here it is the night! The mountain must be lived at all hours, otherwise... what a waste! :-) I took a few shots that night, this is my favorite because of the large halo around the planet Jupiter (visible on the top right). Honestly I do not know exactly what causes, time to time, a halo of light around the planets, the light source in our solar system is and remains the sun, then I guess it might depend on particular angles between sun, earth, planets, etc...In fact, that evening/night even Venus was very bright, more then usual, showing a similar lovely halo, but it was completely in the West, above the plateau Nivolet, which is (photographically speaking) less interesting than the Gran Paradiso group. In this portion of night sky above the Gran Paradiso, besides streaked clouds due to 30 sec exposure, it's clearly visible the Orion constellation (perfectly aligned over the 4,061 meters summit), then we have Aldebaran (Taurus constellation), Menkar (Cetus constellation), the Pleiades cluster, and, as said, planet Jupiter. _____________________ ©Roberto Bertero, All Rights Reserved.
