Very cool - I like the different approaches in photography, not landscape or astrophotography

Cool

Outstanding - I like the lecture and the step-by-step setup and photos. The reflection is great.

Love the shot guys! Be careful out there though, MODNR has been cracking down hard on astrophotographers without permits. My small group has the proper permits, but they still harass us. Just a heads up!

Outstanding! Looking forward to more shared adventures. Fall colors ahead!

Don’t give away any of my secret fishin spots, got ‘em all over Missouri 😂 😂😂

Thanks for bringing us along! That shot at 8:34 with the road and the Milky Way lined up is top notch!

The black and white is beautiful. I also like the one with the river and the tree laying across it. Did you try a portrait composition on that one?

Hey, buddy! Hope you’re doing well. Some nice shots there. Did you guys take an exposure for the foreground and the background? Or did you just capture everything in one shot? Sometimes, if I can get away with it, I have better luck taking a longer shutter, low ISO exposure of the foreground, and then a longer/high ISO shot of the Milky Way, then blending them together in Photoshop.

I must admit, I'm not much of a photographer. I mostly follow you to see bits of my Missouri homeland! ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Besides the obvious quality of your Milky Way photos, the enthusiasm you guys have toward using your imagination (like with the truck light trails) shows how much you enjoy what you are doing, even in a dark, bug infested environment,. Nice work!

Thank you for sharing the techniques and the photos. Outstanding photos.

Very teachable - thanks for sharing the process and the techniques.

Nice work.

The black and white is my favorite. They are all wonderful.

Hard to choose favs. Second photo of rocks in Eastern CO; I’m fascinated with the lower whiteish formation that looks like a petrified horse head/neck. The B&W picture in Garden of the Gods definitely caught my eye because of your lack of color choice! The Glenwood Canyon waterway with the colorful flowers is mesmerizing! That scraggly/shedding moose made the funniest shot with his pose. You are definitely gifted by the best!!

The Canyon with the Magenta flowers, but not a fan of manipulated images. Perhaps Animals would be worthy of more pix. Ansel like the Twilight Zone and the Fat guy who did B&W. Colors have warmth. Hi Piper! Imagine how those Meese or Mooses, would do to your plants in Waynesville. Why are Goose Bumps not called Geese Bumps - more than one?

Good wrap-up photographically of an obviously enjoyable trip away from the Ozarks.

They're all wonderful. Garden of the God's is definitely less crowded early. That scene from your pull off is really awesome.

Excellent images. I'm fortunate enough to live in COS, and that is one of my favorite places. Come back in February when the big horn sheep are walking around. That never fails to blow me away.

Love the (1) B&W Garden of the Gods, The Color one is great too. Water is good - love the long exposure. Great ELk shot - the tongue is funny too. Was it smoke or fog in the valley? (2) Moose is great too.

Beautiful site and photos. Thank you for sharing.

Nice location, nice photos, nice video. Well done!

Very cool place. Thanks for sharing. The last photo was the best, I thought.

A great storm, very dramatic

Nice photos of the rock formations ...unusual clouds too. Enjoy your travel and keep the photos coming!

Thanks for sharing - That's great information and explanation of what you are doing, are you using a remote trigger, That was a good final shot.

Outstanding! Well balanced between video and stills. Just the right amount of tech talk. Mary Ann was a perfect assistant to you Steve. In that regard, I like the last photo in the video the best , with her red jacket. I've never done this sort of photography and I learned from your video there is a lot of advance recon and prep plus on-the fly adjustments that make it harder than most (like me) might think...much less being in an open field with cattle about in the dark.

Believe me when I say that as you guys get older you will find the subject matter/location and time of day photos are taken becomes less important to your photo habits. I have found as I've aged that I now get the same level of photo enjoyment taking close-up photos of flowers in my garden as I once did with compositions of epic landscapes, glaciers and wildlife in Alaska. I also now find joy in casual photography midday, stopping on the way to and from appointments or shopping often results in a lot of keepers. Before ending my comments, I want to say I am a still photographer, not a videographer, so I have no interest in making You Tube presentations. But, I do watch them all the time. In that regard, I think your videos would be better received if you would include photos taken of scenes during the video description, rather then at the end. As you are now doing Steve, I once spent time in my younger days with Mike, out and about with our cameras, so I stuck around to the end of your video because of that. However, were I a stranger just looking at what Ozark photography is all about, I probably would have stopped watching well before getting to the end. Obviously others may disagree, but for me having less technical talk, less standing around, and most important more photos during the video seems a good way to attract more viewers. Meanwhile, I envy your motivation getting up at 0430 and on the road with hot coffee to foggy Ozark locations I know fairly well, having been raised as a young boy in that environment (Neosho). Cheers!.

This was very educational - I would like to see more of these. I like the techniques too. A teachable moment is always great. Thanks for sharing.

Love that drone footage! You did cut off the end 😂 Good to hear from you. Take care, buddy!

Video cut off missed the photos

Revisit error 2 and 3. You made the same mistake on 3 that was caught for #2. 😂

Steve did a great job. Feel better soon.

Hurt back is not fun. Heal quickly Mike! Oh yeah, watch out for Steve, he may start his own channel and poach potential subscribers from you. Good job on the video Steve.

Gorgeous work!!

Yeah, it sure does make it harder!

NICE! Looks like you guys came away with several great images. That's an excellent location! Thanks for sharing, buddy!

Amazing, i like how the tree on the right is leaning the same way as the Milky Way. Thanks for sharing with us

Beautiful photos. Thank you for sharing.

Beautiful photos thanks for sharing.

The video was great - captured the yellow flowers better the the photos - and the color looked washed out. I did like the composition.

Great video. Inspires me to get out and explore, and shoot more photos. Keep up the good work.

Great video! Thank you for sharing.

nice - thanks for sharing - would like to see what summer provides

Nice shared experience and photos. Was partly cloudy where I was. Nothing like you all saw.

It was amazing - we went to Fort de Chartres State Historic Site. We thought that the 2017 was better.

I visited here numerous times, one time there were so many snakes I was uncomfortable getting out of my car! What a cool spot

Nice video. For me it was your best one ever. Lots of photos, nice music and not a lot of talk about technical details of composition and set-up. It told a nice "photo buddy" story at a special location.

Amazing
