A Brief Look At My Flickr Photos – April 2020

Welcome to another edition of  ‘A Brief Look At My Flickr Photos’.  I will review some of the photos I uploaded to Flickr during the past month. For each photo I will share the following information:

• Subject
• Location
• Date & Time
• Equipment
• Camera Settings
• Comments

In a nutshell, I hope these posts will not only help you to appreciate some of my Flickr photos, but will hopefully also assist you in becoming a better photographer yourself.

Now, let’s get started by reviewing some of my Flickr photos I uploaded in April 2020, shall we?

• Comments: Long exposure photo (9 x 5 seconds stacked) of one of the two visible passes that evening of the International Space Station ISS with two astronauts and one cosmonaut on board (Expedition 62). Also visible in this photo are Venus and the Moon. In order to prevent the celestial objects from making trails in this photo edit, I used only the first photo for depicting the other celestial objects in the background (Venus, Moon, other stars).
