How to Shoot a Blue Hour Blend in the Field - Astrophotography
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 авг 2024
- Any time you use a star tracker to take amazing long exposures of the Milky Way, you'll need to also take a blue hour shot of the foreground to blend your Milky Way with. This serves multiple benefits, most notably in the fact that the blue hour shot will have minimal noise, as well as maximum detail.
In this video, you'll be guided on how to shoot a blue hour shot in the field, which you can then combine with your Milky Way image in Photoshop.

Very helpfull indeed.
Another plus with this technique is the additional time one can use at night to take the images of the sky without needing to also take good images of the landscape.
Totally! Thanks for watching.
I'm planning my first one today, so this is super helpful! Great teacher! Thanks.
Good luck out there!
I'll be out for the perseids this year with rainier as the main foreground subject...thanks for the tips!
Awesome! Good luck out there.
Good Video... Thank you.!!
Thank you too!
Good job man
Thanks!
I appreciate this video. I was never much of a fan of noisy foregrounds, so having this technique in my back pocket will help out a bunch. Here's hoping you get more viewers on this topic.
Glad it was helpful!
Cannot believe that this has only 36 Views. Great work :)
Thanks much!
He keeps growing, you’ll see him in future trust me
Keep up the great content. Appreciate what you do for the community. 🤙🏼
Thank you so much!!
Absolutely helpful :)
Glad it was helpful!
Great tips! It hard to remember all those little things in the field so having someone lay it out like that is awesome. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
I have been doing astrophotography for several years now and just updated my system to the Nikon z6ii. I’ve actually never have thought about blending my photos together with blue hour photos. Thank you for the helpful tutorial! Going to Glacier national park in just a couple weeks and I would love to try this out! Thanks for the helpful tutorial. Loving your videos!
Thanks so much for checking it out! This technique will give you amazingly detailed night photos. Good luck out there!
Super helpful :)
I'm so glad!
You should have hundred of thousands of subscribers!
Thanks! Haha
Awesome milky way shots.
Glad you like them!
¡Tienes un contenido excelente! En español no hay tantos videos que hablen acerca del blending o de técnicas avanzadas de revelado de Vía Láctea.
¡Tu canal merece tener muchos más seguidores!
I’m glad it was helpful!
Love you work mate , keep these awesome videos coming 🤙
Thanks so much!
Awesome pictures. Very good tutorial.
Thank you!
I have always kept my camera set in the same position for the bh blend and the milky way shot/shots. Good idea to get more foreground! Thanks,
That is probably the easiest way to blend it!
very informative video! thank you !
Glad it was helpful!
I'm an astrophotographer too, loving Milky Way and star trail images. Although the Milky Way is pretty much the same each time, the variety of foregrounds can make the Milky Way quite memorable. A have a star tracker but don't always take the time to align it. Have you compared stacking a dozen 20 second Milky Way images to a single star tracked image of 2 minutes? I am heading to the desert southwest to find dark skies with interesting foregrounds. Hopefully the weather will cooperate. ALSO, are you getting ready for the total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024?
The tracked image will always outperform stacked photos. Once you get past 6-8 stacked images, the return on each image diminishes and it doesn’t get a ton better. I’m leading a workshop in Utah during the eclipse so I won’t actually be shooting it! I don’t care too much to shoot the eclipse.
Thanks I'll try it tomorrow at the 12 Apostles
Good luck!
Thanks Austin. I'm subscribed.
Thanks so much!
Very helpful. Thanks
Thanks for watching!
Super Helpful!!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for your video. I have few questions... don't you think that the edges of foreground is a little bit "sharp"? Is there possibility to soften it a little bit?! This would make the feeling more realistic that everything is made at one shot 😊
And the second question - how do you make the stars glow? It looks so awesome 👍👍👍
You can feather the mask slightly but this usually won’t look great. There are a couple masking tricks you could use on a case by case basis though! I didn’t do any star glow on this photo, but you can paint with a brush to create a little glow if necessary!
This was great! =)
Thank you!
Great video! One question: At the end of the video you explained how you can gain more pixels if you point the camera down a little since you don't need the sky of the blue hour image anyways. If you do that, how do you make sure the horizontal position of your camera stays consistent? I mean if you don't the blend won't be perfect, right? Or do you just stretch and adjust the images while blending?
You can easily stretch and adjust the images. Oftentimes, I move the tripod for the Milky Way shot and it’s pretty easy to blend. If you want to check out my video on the post processing side of blue hour blending, you can find it here: ruclips.net/video/91wT7vKdId8/видео.htmlsi=jyPhPIeUmWSri3SB
Thanks for answering! I'll watch that video now!@@AustinJamesJackson
One can literally download a random blue hour landscape photo and a random Milky Way photo, from the internet, and do a sky replacement in Photoshop and tweak it to look realistic, that's how easy it is. Photos could be shot in entirely different parts of the world, and at different times of course.
👍
One sure could. But what would be the fun in that, if you are a photographer who finds joy in creating his or her own images?
With that logic one could even download a finished image and be done with the hobby...
Do you use a tracker?
I do!
