    Amazing image with such wonderful detail and colours of both the Milky Way and Stonehenge. I'm showing my age here but when I was a kid and visited Stonehenge, we could walk right inside it (and probably shamefully, on some parts of it).

    Night shooting can be frustrating with lights from others you can’t always control.
    Not to mention equipment issues that are always interesting to deal with.

    Well done Alan.

    Its not possible to get all the best pictures in such a short space of time, even though you captured great content on this occasion. If it were easy then astrophotography would be a bit boring. Both you and Richard Tatti have restored my childhood passion for astronomy and in later life, astrophotography. ATB and keep up the good work. Damian.

    Stunning work, Alyn. It is amazing how the highlights control and the understanding of the consequences of ISO invariance was a game changing for me. I was happy when your video about ISO invariance was released and the how we see the same way about the protection of the highlights. I did understand if you tracked longer and steached shots of the same portion of milky way separately and then made a panorama or if you performed longer exposure of each part once and then just made a panorama.

  • @robb7342
    @robb7342 3 года назад

    Super presentation as usual. Nice to see the detail that was pulled out despite the light pollution. Just curious how you are working around the rotation of the tracker using the Z-mount and gimbal head when doing a pano. Obviously the tracker is rotating the whole assembly while you are paning. What approach are you taking to keep the head level?

  • @hemantsharma1967
    @hemantsharma1967 3 года назад

    Hi Alyn, great effort and great learning experience. Great result as well.
    I need an advice.
    I recently went to Utah and put my newly acquired MSM with Alan Wallace Z bracket. I was using three lenses- Nikon 14-30 MM F4, Nikon 20 mm f 1.18 with my Z7ii and another one was Fuji 8-16 mm 2.8 with my Fuji XT3. Though I got some nice tracked shots, but in panorama shots, it started giving trails after the third shot. So my question is whether I should realign the z bracket after every single shot. To me it look more like weight balance issue. Can you advise on this?

  • @CosmuzzAstro
    @CosmuzzAstro 3 года назад

    Glad to see again, Great as always AND 3 camera operator just Awesome! Stonehenge on a clear night is great to have. Great that you explained the setups for panos and degree settings to use for your choice of lens mm for stitching overlay. The stepper base works really fast, counting steps!! On a tracker, do you think bracketing 1 or 2 ev would help with light pollution?

    Lovely shot Alyn and good to have you back, I live not too far from Stonehenge and was thinking about trying there for my 2nd MSM star tracker shoot but the May weather was dreadful. I did wonder about the amount of light pollution there and I only have a 15-35mm f/2.8 and no filter like you have so maybe one for if I get a faster lens.
