Want to make your own?

There are camera phones out there that can do all the work for you. The Huawei P8 is our pick of the bunch – the reviews of the camera’s quality have been exceptional and the convenience of not needing a DSLR Camera makes it a win for us. Click here to learn more about the Huawei P8.

Otherwise, you can do it the old fashioned way. You’ll need:

1. A DSLR Camera (with manual settings that include “Bulb”)
2. A Tripod
3. A remote trigger with a lock mechanism or timer
4. At least one extra battery (Long exposure can eat up battery)
5. A lens hood or shade for your lens.
