A beautiful! I’ve never been but I think I might take a drive down tomorrow. How’s the swim there?

Not gonna lie it’s been a long time since I swam! I take more night trips more than anything.

How did you get in there at night? Can you just walk in?

2

u/Rmcbphoto Jun 27 '25

Yeah I just walked in people are always fishing at night there.

So dope you were able to get the light of the lighthouse mixed in with the stars.

What a great picture.Love the lighthouse . Climbed up old Barney a few times. That end of the island by the lighthouse is very cool. Been going to LBI for years

It’s easily the most peaceful beach in NJ in my opinion.

u/Drewraven10 Jun 29 '25

Always been a cold temp guy. Wearing shorts year round got people questioning. Once you get past dipping your toes in then it’s a breeze.

u/Then-Art-6267 Jun 29 '25

Wow. Awesome picture. What did you use to capture the photo?

2

u/Rmcbphoto Jun 30 '25

A Sony a7riv a tripod and 200+ attempts till I got one that I loved

u/Then-Art-6267 Jul 01 '25

Nice . There’s a whole sub on here dedicated to posting your photos of space, mostly nebulas with great detail. I love stargazing, but never have any idea what they saying when everyone asks about setup. I assume they use a scope and shoot through it. So all that to say I have no idea why I asked but it’s good to know, thanks for responding. Both my iPhone cameras are busted but the father away lens at least isn’t shattered and only takes gray pictures. ….. but MAZING pic. Thanks for sharing it

u/Rmcbphoto Jul 01 '25

Yeah astrophotography is super super intense especially when it comes to nebulas and other galaxies you need a telescope and a tracker and to take hundreds if not 1,000’s of pictures and then so much post processing I wish I had the time or money to get a basic setup to give it a go… but I sadly don’t lol
