    Seems cool. Will have to wait til after work. Can’t watch videos with sound here. Wish you provided a text version too :(

    Also a very good tips is to turn off the VR function to prevent any vibration. You don’t need the VR function when you’re using a tripod.

    And if you have a remote shutter, you should use that one too.

      great picture, the mountains looks very beautiful. very mysterious. a picture only with those mountains and with that low key light would be awesome.
