'I made it this far!' That was EPIC planning and definitely beneficial. Ppl like myself who are beginners looking for the hows, whys and what fors can easily get lost in the beautiful end results which are inspirational, but we all also need that grounded foundation of just what it takes to plan and prep sometimes well in advance......and that's a great skill. Many thanks from chilly wet UK 👍👍👍
Keep going! The planning process can be a bit tedious at first, but I think that once people start seeing the image results you're likely to get, and especially seeing that the results are "legit", (the Milky Way actually rose in that spot, at that time, with that scale, etc) ...then a lot of people will be coming back to watch this video again and again, because this is gold right here. If you pull off that last sample shot with the Milky Way, with the foreground trees and everything, I think it'll be a truly stunning image. I also appreciate your mentioning of the technical "limitations" that you're going to have in place. Not that I have anything against composite imagery from an artistic standpoint, however, as I believe you agree, I just find that there are so many real, accurate images to be made out there in real life, that I just don't need to "fabricate" any image, or "fake" a photograph by moving or enlarging the sky or other objects. Is it arguably less creative, with less "artistic liberty" available to me? Sure. But my primary goal is to document the real world, not just to create art. Looking forward to the next video!
Keep going! The view from there is not bad at all! I also enjoy a lot the planning process,I'm learning a lot here 😉,so yes I made it till the end! 😊Claudia, Italy
@@chasingluminance Awesome! I can't remember if you touched on it before, but from this video it sounds like your RP is your preferred camera for night/astro now, not your Em1iii/OM1? Is that right? You got some cool results with the handheld hi res with the Em1iii - was it just too much work/limiting compared to the full frame results which involve less work to obtain? Thanks and keep it up, love the idea of this project. I had a similar idea a few years ago, wanting to photograph as many scenes at night of the waterfalls/mountains where I used to live (many of which involved climbing deep into valleys). It was hard work and I never quite saw it through, but the learning experience and journey was fun and I still love some of the images I got.
@@danneukirch4486 I'm still using the om1... but my rp is astro modded so it brings out better colors in orion. I'll be using the om more when I'm hiking
Keep Going Alex!! Hoping to see wonderful Colorado through your lens. By the way, I would suggest you to add GPS coordinates of your shooting location in the spreadsheet from where you did the planning and scouting for your reference in future. It would save you some time at the time of actual shooting. And also, speaking of the spreadsheet, you can sort it keeping the headers at the top. Just check the box that says " cells contain headers" . Not sure if Google spreadsheets has this option but MS Excel has it for sure. Anyway, all the best for the project!!

Keep going! It will be more rewarding because it was difficult.
