First attempt at typing out subtitles! It probably looks a bit small on a mobile device, but please let me know if they're helpful or not so I know whether to continue with them for future videos. Thanks : )
@@Astrolavista I can imagine pal, I know how long it takes to make my simple videos....It would take me months to make a quality video like this.......Thanks Chris....I know...I still have to keep pinching myself :)
Congratulations for your new job! Nice video, i liked the animations, where did you find them ?on Esa/Hubble site? Subtitles helps i would like to have auto cc, but seems RUclips does not translate my videos for some time, is harder to make them from 0, i spent a whole day on my last video to make the captions for 25 min of video.
Hey loan, Thanks :) I made the animations in a space simulator called Universe Sandbox (it took a while lol) Thanks for the feedback about subtitles, and you're right about the time it takes to add them. It took me a good hour to type out 1400 words for a sub 7 minute video, so I can totally imagine it taking a day for a 25 minute video! Well done for sticking with it :)
Thanks a lot Luke mate! Really glad you liked it :) Part 2 might be on the cards by the looks of it Christ on a bike though, this type of video takes a lot of hours to produce lol I might try and slip in a more typical style video to recover before I go for part two hehe
Great Informative Video Mate!! Iam Looking forward for Part - 2. In the summer Traingle Lots Of Amazing Objects To look at. The Ring Nebula And The Dumbell. I have Seen The Ring Through my 6 inch Newton. Its my Favorite Object through Telescope during The Summer and The Dumbbell is No exception!! This Was a Nice Guide For Stargazers In summer!! Nice Presentation, Clear Skies!🌌
Now one day you'll have to tell me your name? :) You always leave nice comments and I never know what to call you? The ring nebula is magic to look at, totally agree. Talking of which, I'm convinced I could see hints of green and blue in the nebula when I had an 8" Dob under dark skies about ten years back, that really was magic, I've never forgot that observing session. Glad you liked the video!
@@Astrolavista Oh Yes!! My Name Avanteesh.. Hopefully Now You have Some Idea 😃.. Also; I recently shot ring Nebula with my 6 inch Telescope. The Results Were Awesome, I could See It from my light Polluted Sky too!!
Nice vid and some good info 🙂👌 ...been playing around with a little Mak observing and imaging the moon and planets for the past few months, but added a 200p to this last week...haven't had the chance to get outside with it yet, due to the lovely weather currently hanging over Ipswich, but this video is perfect for when the skies finally clear and I'm after some objects to view...cheers! 🍻 And I look forward to part 2 🤞🏻😬
Hey you're just down the road from me then, I'm in Kesgrave :D With our Bortle 6 ish skies you possibly might need a UHC filter to bring out some of the nebula, but of course give it a go without first. Glad you liked the vid and remember to bung an eyepatch on half an hour before you go out, that will help get your pupil dilation maxed out...it also gives your other half a good laugh I've found :D
@@Astrolavista I'm near the speedway stadium, so just down the road indeed 😮 ...I had wondered about filters and whether they were worth investing in, I shall give some UHC a look 👍🏻 Eye patch on! 😂
@@sPidX1 Wow you're like less than a mile away! What are the chances :D The Astronomik UHC filter grabbed my attention when I was researching this video, it gets really good reviews. I've not tried the Astronomik for myself but I may have to change that after reading about it: www.firstlightoptics.com/uhc-oiii-visual-filters/astronomik-uhc-filter/ref/diyastro/
Hi Chris. Part 2 please! So many deep sky objects look like things you see like NGC 7000 and there is VY Canis Majoris star one of the largest known makes our sun a speck of dust compared to it. One of the strangest thing I've seen is the blinking nebula in Cygnus omg it blinked at me when you look to side of it. I thought this nebula blinks at me when it's so far away! M57 is like a polo mint as Jason from small optic says it's a polo mint shape and it's a nice polo mint close to Vega! Sigel is at least 60 thousand times brighter than our sun. You think of Saturn when you think of Huu hoops the crisp snack. This morning I got letter from NHS for second covid vaccine and when I get it I'm starting the astrophotography journey I planned from last year and after 5th June it starts. I'm ready now I've got everything I needed!!! I waited for this and I know my first images will be ok but the more I learn the better I will become! What about part 3 for supernovae? Which stars are close to going supernova? Great video and stay safe buddy!!!
Hey John, you just reminded me of those size order videos where they start with a small Moon and end up showing the largest star. My boy was obsessed with those videos for a while and I learned that UY Scuti is the largest we've found so far. It's something crazy like 2000x bigger than the Sun! give or take. Really hard to wrap your head around things that kind of size. You know what, the blinking nebula is just out side the summer triangle but I'm tempted to include it in part two! Hopefully I can get away with that because technically the North America nebula was slightly outside the triangle also :D It's such an interesting planetary nebula it might get an honorary mention. That's great about the jab mate! hopefully back to it soon then, I'll look forward to hearing how you get on with your astro imaging :) lol Lets see about part 2 first ;)
Thanks! Nice video. I tried the Sadr region two days ago, only 40 minutes of subs showed already a nice red nubula structure with an unmodified DSLR in bortle 5 region. I did use a CLS filter though.
Yes it certainly can be done with un modded cameras too, I probably should have clarified this :) I started out with an un modded 1100D and was also able to pick up some Ha when imaging Orion, the Rosette, and the Horse Head etc. Eventually I did remove the IR cut filter and it did make a big difference on emission nebula, it's just more optimised because you're not filtering out some of the wavelengths of light you want to keep. I still like un modded cameras for galaxies, clusters, and reflection nebulae because the colour is easier to balance, and one more interesting thing is that different camera brands seem to use different strength IR cut filters e.g, my stock Fuji mirroless had a reasonably good response in the red without the mod. I'm currently using an old Canon 40D and kept it standard for galaxy season, but now the nebs are here I'll remove the filter. I thought it would make a good video to show a before and after using the same target and exposure time etc, just to show those new to the hobby what they can expect if they mod their camera.
Hi Valter, the likes have been amazing, great support there! I don't get why the video has done so badly though? It's almost rock bottom in terms of views compared to videos that took a fraction of the time to make :( I probably wont put 80 hours work into part 2, but we hit the 100 likes so I will make a part 2 in a couple of videos time :)

Fantastic informative video Chris, amazing graphics...Some serious editing there. Great stuff buddy :)
Thanks Jason, really glad you liked it :) Some of the software was a bit of a learning curve so don't ask how long this video took to make lol
Oh, and it's great to see that you're nearly at a 1000 subs! :)

A wealth of information Chris nicely put together. I'm gonna try the sod off trick tonight.👍
lol I wishing you luck, Ollie, it's not worked for me this month, Cheers!
Great video Chris, glad to see you back and congratulations on your new job with FLO 👍
Your support has been brilliant mate, I just wanted to let you know it's appreciated :)
@@Astrolavista no worries Chris (lockie) always a pleasure and a great chap you are, coffee bought but didn't add any sugar ☺️
@@astronebulee578 awh thanks Lee, very kind :) Cheers for the coffee too!
Very relaxing videos to watch and excellent explanations on all your vids. Keep up the good work.
Thanks! I'll certainly try 🙂
Nice one Chris, I have put in my contribution towards part 2 😀
Hey Vineeth cheers hehe :) 40 odd likes so far so it might happen!
nice explanation... thank you so much :)
You're very welcome, glad you liked it :)
Definitely a like there!! :P Very concise, informative and fun. Looking forward to part 2. :D
Cheers Robert, part 2 is looking very likely :D

That was brilliant Chris, very well paced too I felt! - I'm definitely casting my vote/like for a part two mate :D
Clear skies!
Thanks a lot Luke mate! Really glad you liked it :) Part 2 might be on the cards by the looks of it
