East Point Lighthouse NJ Milky Way Photography

The East Point Lighthouse in New Jersey is one of the best places to photograph the Milky Way. In this article, we’ll give you tips on getting the best night sky photos.

Photographing East Point Light House

I had the great opportunity to photograph East Point Lighthouse in New Jersey this past weekend, and I wanted to share some tips for anyone who might be interested in photographing this beautiful location. First, East Point Lighthouse is very dark, making it ideal for Milky Way photography. Second, the lighthouse is situated on a cliff, which provides an excellent vantage point for shooting the night sky. Third, no light pollution sources near the lighthouse exist, so you can take advantage of the dark skies.

If you’re interested in photographing East Point Lighthouse, I recommend getting there early to set up your equipment. I would also recommend bringing a tripod, a wide-angle lens, and a headlamp or flashlight to help you see in the dark. Finally, dress warmly, as it can get quite cold at night!

Around the lighthouse there some very boring beach areas. The location is not good for photography but it is good for stopping and working on your tan for a minute. The only interesting thing we found this day was this truck about to be washed out to sea.

WEATHER

 WEATHER?

 Don’t forget that you can use a rain sleeve on your camera if it is raining. If it is bright and sunny, you want to use a low ISO such as 50 or 100.

If you photograph cloudy days, you can do running water or waterfall photography to help avoid the glaring sun. You can also use an ND filter to get long exposure for dramatic effects, even in the sunshine. If you ghost hunt indoors in abandoned places, be careful!

Go to our Photography Store after reading about waterfall photography or neutral density filters.
