Red Bull Photography recently joined our community with a verified brand profile of their own. This partnership isn’t just about amazing photography — it’s also about amazing stories. Behind every shot on Red Bull Photography is a talented photographer, a wild story, and a few lessons learned. We’ll be telling those stories every week here on 500px ISO and the Red Bull Photography website.

One way to add instant drama and provide a compelling context to your sports photography is to shoot all the action under a celestial body in nature. But we’re not gonna sugar-coat—this technique will take a lot of time, patience, and passion to get it right, so make sure to get lots of practice and read up on astrophotography tutorials first. In the meantime, you can get inspired with this cool collection of action photos taken under the moon, stars, and the sun by a group of stellar Red Bull photographers. Read on!
