@@AmateurPhotographer12 I tried it last night but those Milky way Halo's are not very well lit... I mean they are visible but not like yours or like those taken with f2.8 or better lenses. Can I send you one of my raw pictures? Is that possible? I just want you to see if they are any good since I'm on a trip and I don't have access to my pc and Lightroom.
Hey there 🙂 Witch Adobe Program do you use? Just the normal Adobe Lighteroom 2024 or witch one? I‘m a complete beginner 😅 THX Andi And by the way ☝️ The best Advise Video i saw, easy to follow, understand and normal advises. So thx a Lot 😎👍
What you als ocould have done is 2 radial filters, along the center of the MW. & intersect both of them with luminocity selection for shadows & another for the highlights. Put a smlal amount of negative dehaze & you would really emphasise the "dish" shape of the MW
Thanks for the tutorial, you are fun to listen to. I love capturing milky way, although I'm still so amateur. I don't even have a camera, i use my android phone to capture it. Obviously not as good as professional with proper camera but it still pleasant to look at, enough to make me happy.
I was wondering the same thing. I have often taken Milky Way shots at Sunrise, but have been trying to figure out how Nate got nearly the same angle with so much more dramatic a foreground.
That was beautiful! I’m going to be living in the Georgia caucus mountains for a month soon and I’m going to try and capture some beautiful Milky Way shots. It would be silly not to try due to the zero light pollution in the area. I look forward to playing around in Lightroom when I get back. Amazing video and thank you for sharing your passion and knowledge. Greetings from Liverpool, England
ive been shooting the milky way for years but then hadn't in a while this video just helped me so much since my skill of editing back then was horrid i was like omg i dont know how to edit the milky way now with better gear and shots! super interested in the more in depth editing video! (shooting form long island NY so the MW isnt as boom but still something!)
Hi Nate Thankyou for all the advice on Astro editing.Can you please tell me with Long exposures how to prevent hot pixels on my image also how to eliminate them?Thankyou for any advice.John
Always RAW... Sometimes in a very high ISO case (+6400) I shoot RAW and JPEG to compare the camera's noise reduction to my edits. I use the Nikon Z8 and have found its noise reduction is really good. I liked your Milky Way edits, I'm finding mine have a green cast that I need to mask out. I shoot the MW at 5000 Kelvin knowing I can change the RAW files in edit. I don't recall the green cast when I was using an older camera body. (Nikon D850) Editing the RAW lets me make a better color scheme. Good luck with your channel, it is difficult to keep up the work over time!
Well those other videos are wrong. Adobe and Topaz themselves both recommend denoising the raw image before you edit. I would recommend following the advice of the people who wrote the program.
Good workflow, however, the lens profile corrections really should to be done at the very beginning, so you know what you're working with. The reason you had to restore the vignette is because of the edits you had made up to that point.
Do you shoot in RAW?
Yes
Yes I do... But I'm in pain with my kit lens 😢
@@samanmahdiabadi why you can literally do it with kit lens lol

Nat thanks so much that is one of the best tutorial videos I’ve seen for any topic, let alone improving Milky Way images. Appreciated.
Thanks so much. I'm completely new to editing and astrophotography. Great tutorial, just what I was looking for.
Another awesome video, and compendium to your last one. This was fantastic and very helpful, thanks!

I wonder if increasing the exposure before you create your sky mask would help automate the mask selection.
You shot this up around Crystal Mtn yeah? I just sat down for a watch and edit along and went WOAH haha!

I've been to the Caucasus of Georgia, it's a truly gorgeous place! Enjoy your stay!
Excellent video thanks for sharing, hope to see more videos.
Bro, you looks like a Chrish Jericho from his young ages. Thy for the amazing tut.
I was there at the same place on August 3rd. It’s amazing place. Nice vid
Thank you so much . I hope to see more guide videos like that❤️

Great refresher for me! Thanks!
To perfectly mask the skybox do as follows: Select sky, subtract sky again and than invert mask

Great video!
You kept the stars .Bravo. 5 stars to you. The carpet of stars is what makes the night sky so special. But... some togs want to remove them

Do you prefer photoshop in lieu of Lightroom or do use both
I watch other editing videos and they say do denoise last, you stated first. Why?
Well those other videos are wrong. Adobe and Topaz themselves both recommend denoising the raw image before you edit. I would recommend following the advice of the people who wrote the program.
Awesome video! Is this photo a single shot? Or did you stack quite a few photos to achieve this?
This video is literally showing you how I edit a single exposure.
Great tutorial, most of the Milky Way tutorials are five or six years old does not include the new masks
I would suggest trying StarXtractor and removing the stars while you work on MW cloud then putting them back in!!
My version of Lightroom is pre-denoise 😞
any chance youd be willing to edit one of my photos? i just wanna see what a pro would do with it vs what i did with it
