So @Alyn_Wallace i have been photographing the milky way for almost 2 years now. I´m at that point were i want to maybe invest in a star tracker. Do you have any suggestion because there is a lot to choose from. The pricerange is kind of big when you search around for star trackers. Are the cheaper ones good ? Wich is the best choice for an amateur ?
@@Rearend if just doing wide angle milky way stuff I recommend the move shoot move with a laser to do the polar alignment. If you're looking to do deep-sky galaxies and nebulae then I recommend the Skywatcher Star Adventurer Pro
@@AlynWallace thank you for the fast reply. I have tried and succeded with a good photo of Orion nebulae without a star tracker but it´s a lot of work. I live in Sweden so i don´t know if it´s legal with green laser here. But i know they have several options to choose from. Have to keep my eyes out after the Skywatcher Star Adventure Pro on the used market. Really good and informative videos you so keep up the grind and i´ll keep watching.
Hi Alyn, I’ve been doing deep sky Astro for the past few months and now the MW core is coming back here i think it’s a good time to try some Wide-field stuff. I had a go at doing some wide field Orion the other day but I am unsure on how to blend long duration tracked subs 2+ minutes with short length untracked images at higher ISO for the foreground. Is there anyway to do it in sequator?
Please do the printing video! Would be really helpful! But only if you get the time in your hands
Rest in Peace
Tip #6: learn about the lunar table to plan your trip when you can moon light to illuminate the foreground.
Tip #7: shoot the foreground at blue hour and then wait for the milky way core to appear.
Tip #8: use a flashlight/torch to paint the foreground subject with light.
All of these tips will require you to learn Photoshop and how to blend the images together.
Which brings me to tip #9: learn how to use Photoshop. It is a very powerful tool to edit your milky way photos with.
Hi Alyn. Superb content as usual. A definite yes for a printing tuition video please.Many thanks for sharing.
Dude seriously. When I'm kinda bored(burned out) from astrophotography, I watch this guys's videos. He is so passionate, that it feels me with excitement! I'm buckled up to shoot the Milky Way tonight!
Thanks for these tips Alyn. Would really like to see a printing video too. I’ve printed a few Astro photos at home and have had to increase exposure by around 1 stop to replicate the brightness of the image on screen. Would be good to know if that’s normal or something I’ve done wrong myself.
I’ve had to do the same thing myself
Your monitor is back lit, the prints are not, and will be darker, either boost exposure of your shots or turn the brightness down on your monitor when processing prints, this applies to daytime shots as well
Excellent tips! Incredibly useful, and also inspiring-it's been many years since I studied basic photography as part of a fine arts program, and then part of commercial art. Your videos make me excited to begin photographing again. I would definitely be interested in learning about printing astrophotos!
Yes please on the printing tips! It would be great to hear about different options such as at home printing versus outsourcing. Thanks for all the great info, love your videos 🤩👏
Stacking took my photos to the next level, yes to the printing video and how to prepare images for print. Thanks so much for all the info! Love that MW above the mountains!
Thank you Alyn! Your videos are really helpful even for a hobby photographer like myself who doesn’t have all the fancy stuff (yet). Your video about using Sequator helped me to take a nice pic of a part of the Orion constellation in the middle of Munich from my bedroom window :D I was impressed what my little EOS 100D can do :)
Hi Alyn, I didn't realize you mentioned me in your video. I'm very happy about it 😍 Thank you very much for your praise! Tonight I was photographing the Milky Way with friends. It was great! Greetings from the Black Forest in Germany, Adam Schnabelsson
Alyn these tips are fantastic. Great concise and engaging delivery my doggo. Keep these goods coming!
Great tips Alyn. I was scouting out at Three Cliffs beach coincidently last weekend and managed get a couple of sunsets at the same time. I'd love to see your printing process.
thanks for another great video!!! I can't wait to get out there and attempt to capture the milky way on my camera! I appreciate the tips for better photography and will definitely consider each one while I am out in the field! Your videos definitely get me pumped to be out there photographing the night sky! thanks for continuing your passion and putting out amazing content for us to enjoy!!! cheers!
Amazing Alyn, thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience
Great tips Alyn. I should definitely scout my locations during day time. And would love to see a video on how to print astroimages. Cheers mate!
As always, great tips Alyn. Yes, please post a video about printing. Continue making great content. I realize it take a ton of time behind the scenes.
Great collection of tips Alyn, very much appreciated 👍
Thanks for this great video Alyn! 🌌💖
Fantastic video Alyn. I’m Looking forward to getting some new Milky Way shots in Guernsey this year using these tips.
I watched this video and decided to try using my 50 1.8 for the sky part of my images and man you are so right on how it brings out more detail in the sky and I have found a new way for shooting my night images thank you for the tip
I can't wait to see your landscape astrophotography from your recent trip to Antarctica. I hope u had clear skies
Great vid. I think Richard of nightscape images captures foreground light perfectly.
Nice one Alyn been waiting for this good luck on your tour. E.
thank you for the content bro. I'm so excited for Milky Way season!!!
Alyn, with your help & several others, I’ve been shooting the Milky Way for several seasons, and found your video exactly on spot. Very good reinforcement. I have a Nikon crop sensor camera, using the Nikon 35mm 1.8 prime, stacked tracked images, provided me with my favorite image to date. Thank you sincerely for your tips, techniques & inspiration. Attempting the Zodiacal Lights in a few weeks. Again, thanks much.
Congrats for all work! Thanks for sharing here your experience!
First comment from india you make great videos
Yet again another fantastic video 👌🏻👌🏻
Perfect example of day time scouting, I was at Mesa Arch in Utah, there is spot in a corner near the arch that is a literal hole with a 60foot or more drop. Glad I saw it in the day time before I walked around to get a better composition shot at night.
I love to take three little electric candles with me to illuminate foreground subjects. Their light through the wax is a lovely, warm color temperature, they can be switched on and off without burning things, they last for weeks, and if you are doing video, they flicker nicely. I place them in deserted houses, rock formations, or even sit with one in my lap facing the camera, similar to the lantern shots Alyn showed. Stick a couple in your tent for a nice glow.
Hi Alyn , Thank you .
I have been a hobby photographer for 30 years , now I am out wild camping at night and this looks like a great new idea for me to try ... If I can bother to lug all my kit about!
Yes to a video for printing (and also advice+reasons on your thoughts about sharpening, please). I have an extra tip for photographers stacking images to remove noise - Don't chose a foreground with a complex horizon (such as a tree) because it's almost impossible to guide the software to separate the sky from the foreground (if stars are moving between branches, for instance)
Amazing Video, thank you, Alyn.
Great tips! Thanks for this! And yes, absolutely interested in printing astro images!
Thanks again Alyn for great advise
Yes I would be interested in printing images, thanks mate, great video
Thanks for this inspiring video Alyn
Yes please for the printing video! Would love to hear your expertise in this area. I enjoy all of your videos by the way. Keep up your great work, I (and we by extension) love it!
Great video - thanks for sharing!
Brilliant episode
Amazing and educative!
Thanks!
Fantastic video thank you so much! 👍🏼
Amazing work and tutorial. Thanks 🙏🏼
Awesome vid mate-yep definitely up for a vid on printing Milky Way images, especially something large in size/scale👍
I loved this video. I never really knew what a star tracker does until now. Also I would be very interested in seeing a video on printing our night sky photos. As always I get so much out of your videos. Thank you!
another great video great work Alyn hope ur well
Thanks so much for the tips!! Definitely interested in a video on printing- ways to preserve the luminance and pop from the digital image and best mediums for printing astro photos! I have tried photo paper, metallic paper, metal, and canvas and cannot decide what is best!
Very interesting tips !! Thank you so much.
Yes please! Would love to learn how to print my night sky images. Hope you make an video
Excellent info Alyn
Definitely gonna focus on improving my Milkyway astro landscapes this year 🤘
I'm heading to Hawaii in a few days and can't wait to try some of these tips as I've never seen the Milky Way!
Great points! I’ve got to get out of upstate New York and back to the West where the sky’s are dark. Thinking of the Bisti Badlands this fall.
Really well done!
You inspired me to try astrophotography
I love your content so much
Much love from Egypt 🇪🇬 ❤
Thank you! And yes, printing would be great.
Thank you, Alyn, for another great video. I would really like a video about printing. Clear skies.
Thanks for the tips! I'd love to learn more about printing astrophotos!
Yes. Info on Astrophotography prints would be great. Thanks again for another great video.
yes that would be great a printing video!
Thanks for this video. And, yes definitely on the printing video!
What a fabulous video. And yes would love to see a video on print ing. My new canon prograf 1000 needs to use some ink. Thank you for such wonderful content.
Yes, definitely a vid for printing.
This is such a great video. Thank you.
According to Nebula Photos, lower ISO does not decrease the noise. Lower ISO does increase the dynamic range but typically, according to him, you want the lowest read noise for your camera. Photons to Photos has charts. He has a video about all the basics of astrophotography titled “Tracker vs. No Tracker for ASTROPHOTOGRAPHY (Shooting the Pleiades)”. I’m just starting out so please double check things cause I sure don’t know.
Thankyou Alyn.More great tips.Yes the printing idea would be really interesting.Hopefully I may have something worth printing by the time you show us.J
Thank You. Great Video . I learn lots as a very beginner. The tips were great Milky Way is next on my list. I am subscribed to you and looking forward to more of you. Where right now I need help on is how to keep your photos to a point where you can get them printed as a 11x14 size of photo. By the time I get them all edited they are only good enough for 5x7 size of photos. Also I enjoyed how you talked slower and did not have to pause so much, and was able to write down notes
Great tips, Alyn! Thank you! Yes, interested In MW printing
I’d love a video on printing Astro photos!! Great video as always 😃👌🏻
Great video Alan as always. Would love a tutorial about printing MW images. Thanks for producing great and inspirational content.
It's not all about the core , YES ,🙌🙌
Absolutely needed this! I'll be capturing the milky way soon!
Ahh cup of tea and my favourite CZcamsr. The whole world of astrophotography fascinates me. I’m just not very good at it lol
Alyn. I’m enjoying very much the education I’m getting watching your videos. They are costing me money in that as a result of watching them I’ve purchased the Move Shoot Move rotator and both the V and Z mounts. I’m looking forward to clear nights and experimenting with my new equipment. I have a shot in mind to attempt to capture. I’m hoping for a calm, still night to shoot the Milky Way over a particular island in Lake Huron here in Michigan. After some practice, if I have success I will share the resulting image.
#1 will be done this year by Goin to the US on a roadtrip haha cannot waaaaait. And def can't wait to get a better lens. And thank you for #4 - I been waitin for the season to start not knowing I could still shoot it outside of it. Awesome video thank you 🙏🏻
Thanks Again always watching.
Great vid and tips mate 👍🏻hoping to do a lot more MW photos this year
Great advice!!
Excellent refresher Alyn. Looking forward to trying a arch-pano again, just curious as to the number images for stacking? I just found time is against you when having to do a 4 panel stack. Would most definately be interested in a printing tutorial.
Amazing thank you i am keen to start star gazing as i live in Cape Town and everynight almost the stars twinkle with such a beauty i am dying to capture them as we are at the tip of Africa just awesome
Hey Alyn. I'd love to see a video on printing astro images. I've been looking to print some of my own and would love some advise on the best places to get it done and the best media to get it printed on without breaking the bank.
Another great video as always, Alyn. Your tutorials have really helped me get started; enough where some people are asking if they can get my prints (which I think is totally flattering.) I still have a long way to go though. QUESTION - for printing your art, do you have a preferred style or surface that makes your night sky images look best: standard photo paper, metal, canvas, etc??? (Maybe a video on this topic would be cool too).
Great UK centric guide ... top stuff.
Yep! Would love to have a vid on printing. My first attempt was a huge fail!
Enjoyed this Alyn and definitely would welcome the chance to see a video about printing and astro image
Wonderful video! Definitely interested in a printing tutorial.
