The first video I watched in 2018 after realizing I could photograph the stars with a dslr. You taught this 60yo to love the night sky. You were a joy to watch over the years. I will miss your newsletters, monthly vids, the passion in all your videos. So glad the family shared your service today. In a sky full of stars, you will always be the brightest. Shine on you crazy diamond~ 💖
Incredible I'm just fascinated by these expressive images. The landscape is completely different during the night than during the day. However, you need the right equipment to be able to lift the skid. Wow thumbs up.
you all probably dont give a shit but does any of you know a trick to log back into an Instagram account?? I was stupid lost the account password. I appreciate any tips you can give me.
@Callen Tyler i really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and I'm trying it out now. Takes a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Excellent blog Alyn. Glad you got the shot you wanted because it didn't look too promising at first. I know what it's like to be let down by the weather.
Excellent vlog Alyn. Pleased to see that you have migrated into a bit of vlogging, been a fan of your night times images for a long while, so seeing the effort and planning that goes into these night shots is very much appreciated.
Well Done outstanding ! I remember a few years back I was at the top of the fan no wind tent door open watching the sky it was beautiful ! Unfortunately it’s always weather permitting
I had only recently discovered your channel, fabulous it reminds me of a wonderful three days my family and I had at the Brecon Beacons back in 2018. I was blessed with clear skies. Since I live in Australia, it was a real education re thinking my settings for the much brighter skies. I love the UK it is so beautiful and hope to travel again there soon. Ian
Great video Alyn , not been able to get out since getting this silly chronic Lyme disease but watching this as made up for it,cheers for sharing it, lovely work .
Being into aviation photography i came across you by chance and i must say you have inspired me 100% not only that being in North Wales that in my opion is heaven on earth but also your dedication and your awersome pictures well done
Ciao Alyn, it was very interesting to watch, people won't imagine how long a preparation takes to take a shot and the countless hours in hiking, trial and error. Very well done!!!
Fantastic, very concise and simple explanation for a complete beginner like myself. I am only starting to learn how to use my camera, your videos are definitely a great help. Keep it up!
Excellent work, loved all of it. Could you please let me know when is the best time to take this kind of photo and all other information such as parking, any restrictions etc. many thanks in advance
Impressive finished result from a well-conceived shot. Your video also showed the problems that have to be overcome, eg cloud, light pollution, navigation at night, etc. Will be doing my first MW shoot on Dartmoor shortly and I've learned a lot from your demo. Thanks for sharing.
I absolutely loved this. I'm planning a trip to Wales this fall and would love to spend the night on the Beacons photographing. I have subscribed to you and hope to see more of this. Absolutely beautiful!!!
Wonderful vlog Alyn. Really enjoyed it. Big fan of your Instagram feed so it's great to see you out and about doing your stuff. Those amazing images more than made up for the windy audio... before I bought a mic (and wind shield) I almost had to scrap an entire video because of the wind! Glad to see this is VLOG001, so I'm very much looking forward to seeing another one. :-)
Very enjoyable and enlightening. The piano music in the background could do with being quieter. I like how you can still see the Milky Way down to the horizon since at that time it was to the right of the appalling horid lights of Merthyr Tydfil and Ebbw Vale and Cardiff in the South, pity the lights are shining up into the sky from Brecon, you would think that they would shield the upward shining light (i.e. you shouldn't be able to see 10,000 lights from up on a high hill).
Excellent video ! How can you have such well defined foreground in the pano? is it coming from the ISO pushed to 6400? Did you do some exposure blending (longer shutter speed for the foreground)? Thank in advance and if you are interested in coming around the pyrenees you will be welcome.
Awesome! Just stunning. I Shot sunrise once from pen y fan a long time ago. But the Milky Way which always fascinates me when sleeping under the stars looks just out of this world in your shots.. absolutely class 👌🏼
fantastic!... thank you so much. especially appreciated you putting the camera settings onscreen. and also the weather app info. have made notes as i've yet to venture out into the night. great video :)
Alyn, still catching up on your channel. Great work! Even my long suffering wife, who gets to see quite a few photog TH-cams (not by her choice 😁), stops reading her book to watch! We live in australia now but stomped around the Brecons a fair bit a few years back. So it's great to see the places look so beautiful and your enthusiasm for your craft is infectious. Clear skies in Oz!
That was wonderful. The pictures were great and I feel like each time I see one of your videos I'm seeing a new aspect of photography one situation at a time. Nicely done.
Saw your post on Reddit, but I decided to come over to the TH-cam comments to show my love. Brilliant video, mate. Fantastic editing, incredible storytelling. This is top notch stuff. Showing the behind the scenes work that goes into taking these incredible photographs. I've never smashed a subscribe button harder. Can't wait for future installments of this series. Cheers!

Wow stunning shots. I feel so lucky to have the Brecons practically on my doorstep.
Incredible I'm just fascinated by these expressive images. The landscape is completely different during the night than during the day. However, you need the right equipment to be able to lift the skid. Wow thumbs up.
Love the sheep, awesome pictures. Tkx
Yes Alyn, great video. For most of us the settings used are really useful information, a lot of videos dont include this, so thanks for that! 👍🏼👍🏼

Aw man this is awesome super chill adventure dude. What a way to see Wales! Always wanted to try this and you got the perfect spot for the shot!
Great video! Loved seeing how you made that shot... may have to try some of this night sky stuff :-) probably don't need my big stopper 😉
Thanks Nigel glad you liked it. Think you'd be there til sunrise with a big stopper on
you all probably dont give a shit but does any of you know a trick to log back into an Instagram account??
I was stupid lost the account password. I appreciate any tips you can give me.

@Callen Tyler i really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and I'm trying it out now.

@Callen Tyler It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thank you so much, you saved my ass !
Thank you, Alyn! Absolutely brilliant. This Canadian was spellbound. Looking forward to many more breathtaking and educational vlogs.

Thanks Tony, yeah I really want to start sharing the story behind the shots because sometimes the adventure has a lot to tell
Fantastic job Alyn. You really make me want to go again. Great tutorial!
Alyn that was excellent. I learned a tremendous amount just by watching the whole exercise unfold. Thankyou for sharing the settings

Wow. I caught my breath at the images you DID manage to get.
I love this! I've been shooting the milky way for almost 2 years and this encapsulates the process perfectly!!
Jonathan Moya thanks Jonathan glad it resonates with other milky way shooters!
Amazing .loved it so much
You're great for the Welsh economy, Alyn. I've visited so many places in Wales after watching your videos
Love these kind of videos that explain the full process behind the shots. Subbed.

I loved this Alyn! So creative and first of a kind for me - to see a hyper lapse at night WITH THE MILKY WAY!!! Just stunning my friend!
You are the Thomas Heaton of the nightly photography!
Your time lapse’s are amazing and the Milky Way pictures are something else. Keep up the good work.
Thanks a lot Samuel!

Love the vlog and watching the process. Would love to know how you decide on settings for your camera and how you balance it out.

Man that was gorgeous! I really need to learn how to shoot the Milky Way.
I am a bit scared to go out in the dark like places like that. Great photos I want to do more night sky images
Awesome Alyn! More of this please :)

Liked and subbed, nice video, it shows that it's not what camera or what lens or what tripod you have but it is how dedicated a photographer is
That pano was pretty spesh mate! Great vlog dude!
