    I must have said 'Wow!' 15 times during this video, absolutely beautiful work! I love seeing the 3 butte pics side by side, they are each beautiful in their own right but together it makes them all the more captivating, I've paused on that frame for 5 minutes now just comparing and enjoying them! I absolutely love your videos sir, keep up the good work!

  • @janjaabraham
    @janjaabraham 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    The photos are all beautiful, each in its own way. But the milky way photo is a story in itself, magical. 😍😍

  • @AnomandarisPurake
    @AnomandarisPurake 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Some amazing images. The horizontal panorama Milky Way shot was unreal. And then you casually throw in some pics from Capitol Reef NP that most people would kill to take! Thanks for sharing.

  • @TheTraventuresChannel
    @TheTraventuresChannel 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Honestly, I love the butte shots all together as a team. Obviously each stand out for different reasons on their own, but having them side-by-side really gives the shots meaning and depth. Wonderfully done by the way -- all around.

  • @BrookWassall
    @BrookWassall 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    One of your best videos yet, not just for the images, but for the narrative and editing too. It really felt like you took us on a personal little workshop!
    Those 3 images showing different times of day looked amazing when beside each other. A really nice grouping of colours! 👌🏻🙂

    Great combination of technical tips, personal story, and great images. Your choice of music really deepens my emotional response, too. FYI I follow Thomas Heaton, Sean Bagshaw, Nick Page, and others. You all are creating a new form of photo education and art. As an amateur, former pro (45 years ago!) I'm grateful and learning more all the time.

    I love how the curved foreground of the full Milky Way shot at 12:50 matches the arch of the Milky Way, creating a circle. Inspiring, as usual.

    as usual, I really did enjoy your photography! Michael, you are a very talented photographer. I love how to seem to venture out to my neck of the woods (so to speak) to do some of your best shots. However, your shots of the Golden Gate Bridge and the surrounding coastline are fantastic. I have been following you probably for the past 4 or 5 years and everything you do is just wonderful. Keep up the good work.

    An extraordinary display of photos and photographic technique, thanks MS! @ 7:00, undoubtedly, the last image require more work, knowhow and then those stars; however my fav. is the middle image, the sky colors and ambien light are enchanting!

    I really enjoyed this video, and learned a great deal more about astro work, through your simple directions---with videos, stills, and drone shots. When I listen to your calm voice, it's easy to grasp the feel of the place, and absorb the information. The milky way pano was my favorite,

  • @brunofantulin
    @brunofantulin 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I really like all 3 phoos and somehow I experienced them great... As the day goes on, the foreground ''disintegrates'' and breaks into ''pieces'' which then coincide with the countless stars in the sky... A really great story behind the photos Michael! Keep on going :) Regards from Croatia!

    I haven't messed much with other apps for stitching panoramas, but have had good results with PS/LR, but have been doing 50% overlap. The obvious trade-off is more time taking the shot.

    Breathtaking! Those drone shots were especially powerful. (BTW, I notice you bill your shots as being made with a Mavic 3, but your equipment list in the description links to a Mavic 2 Pro. Maybe it's time to update those links?)

  • @chanjeff4406
    @chanjeff4406 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Mind blowing shot and execution of the milky way panorama at 12:50. May I ask how you about some questions:
    (1) How did you ensure that the compositions can overlap each other vertically and horizontally when you took them at night, without any assistance tools (e.g. angle markings on your tripod) or light for checking the overlapping positions?
    (2) I noticed the foreground filled up most of the areas on your bottom horizontal row. Did you use f2.8 throughout the stitching and set different focus point for ground and sky?
    (3) Were all of the 15 brackets (5 horizon x 3 vertical) that you mention single exposures, or did you take several images on each of these brackets for further noise reduction?
    (4) Did you use lightroom's AI denoise program to clean up the noise at ISO 12800?
    Much appreciated!

    Really enjoy your videos with field tips, composition explanation, and processing. When I set up a focus stack I like to adjust exposure for each area of focus so I’m not pushing shadows too much and creating noise.

    • @MichaelShainblum
      @MichaelShainblum  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Thanks Chad! Agreed, thats a great way to do it, usually if I am focus stacking facing into the sun I do a blend for the sky and then the focus stack exposed for the ground.

    Unbelievable. I have been following you for a long time, and I have a question. You never use a shutter cable, won't it cause camera vibration? For example, when you shoot the Milky Way or at sunset.
