Experimenting with Night Photography in Cape Schanck

(Location: Mornington Peninsula, Australia)

After our night sky photography weekend at Lake Eppalock, we were itching to try it on our own. The weather forecast looked good, and the moon was rising late, so we headed down to Cape Schanck.

We stayed in one of the lighthouse keepers cottages, which gives you great access to the lighthouse after hours. In typical Melbourne weather fashion, it started to rain just as we arrived, then cleared for a gorgeous sunset, and was clear all night. “Four seasons in a day.”
