    Not only is the Final Image so beautiful but also the asmr and the whole video is well made ... Quality Content

    I don’t remember ever fixing distortion in my shots for the same reasons..it’s a creative decision that really adds something different to wide angle images. As someone that’s grown up hunting the peaceful nature sounds are welcoming and hipnotic for me personally. Really enjoy your work and how you present it.

    I just wanna say, I really respect you for giving a shit about others and their surroundings! To many oblivious people out there that can care less that you exist and they do what they want when they wanna do it, it’s a respect issue I think and it is a big part of what’s wrong in America, but I stay positive and do my own thing a lot, I like being alone so I can think for myself and my kids lol.

  • @ChristopherCina

  • @danhiggins8733
    @danhiggins8733 3 года назад

    Thanks for another great video, Nick. Both enjoyable to watch, inspiring with the composition ideas and very useful with the technique information. I will be able to use this over the next few weeks. Very timely. I really like the time lapse approach and look forward to trying it. I know Mads Peter Iversen uses that technique when he wants to place himself in an image but a fair distance away. Useful for more than just "time lapse". (Also noted the new bag. I see Thomas and Gavin have one as well. Already ordered mine.)

  • @brianmckeever5280
    @brianmckeever5280 3 года назад +1

    Nicely done! Beautiful final image. At the beginning of the video when you have your back to the camera and it zooms in slightly, I imagined Gavin coming up behind you, "What you doing Nick?" Any news on "F4 Road Trip Part Deux"?

    Excellent audio! As for the LENR; As a Washingtonian myself that is currently living in Mexico, In my experience the LENR really becomes important as it gets hotter and the exposures longer. Apparently you get way more "hot" pixels in the heat. I actually thought I had damaged my camera until I tried shooting in our caves (cooler) and the hot pixels reduced again to "Washington" levels WHEW 😅

    Lovely shot, the Milky Way harnesses that ground light as its own.
    And the two opposing light sources of the silo and Arch holding the MW as you move across the jaded school a broken window to the night sky.

    My God , this was one your best videos. Your video production and story line is spot on. I always love your video and photos . I also love Landscape Astrophotography and watch alot of videos on RUclips. But this one Nick is one of the best I seen. I love to little to no dialogue at the beginning style. Look forward to more Astrophotography from you

    Nick, How cool. I stumbled onto that school house about five years ago just as a big storm was approaching. I couldn't have asked for a better sky at the time. You are right the building has deteriated in a few short years. I always appreciate your videos and your photography.

  • @RussellMcCollom
    @RussellMcCollom 3 года назад

    The final shot turned out great. Beautiful shot. You did well on the red light in the background. Awesome as usual Nick. I love when you do Astrophotography because it reminds me of when I stumbled onto your site yrs ago. The very first video I watched was a night shot with a single tree and you explained how to do light painting. I have since done many Astro photos and light painting of my own. It all started with that video.

    Finally getting darker here north of 50. Inspired me to get out and doing some astro- landscaping. Missing my quiet nights in the counrty seeing stars, listening to the coyotes singing, and the farm dogs barking 'encore'.
