    You know what Alyn? I am in my 60's and used to spend a lot of time in Joshua Tree and other areas in the desert rock climbing. You brought a couple of tears to my eyes with those beautiful pictures. Brought back lots of memories. Thank you very much for doing what you do.

    I love photohraphy and filmography. Never tried astrophotography , getting a deep interest recently but this video is giving me some kind of nostalgic vibes like a hallmark of all the childhood memories of mine .I used to love stars, when I was a child I dreamt of becoming an astronaut,I would always go up to the rooftop of my then house with a mattress and sleep there and start on counting stars until I fall asleep but with time I lose interest in stars. I wouldnt say I lost interest since the thumbnail of this video got me sucked up to the video and I am still in here after 30 minutes which is an emotional testament of the love for stars and sky that I always had and it once again ignited that feeling inside me and yeah you earned a new member in the channel.
    And also I am starting astrophotography from tomorrow cause your passion and love for stars reignited that motivation, that inspiration ,that will to starting to love In ME once again.
    I am starting Astrophotography cos'
    When I see the night sky I just want to dwell in them and feel the presence of every star surrounding me.
    It gives me so much peace and something tells me that my real home is somewhere there.
    It's very hard to explain what I feel, but I know for sure that this feeling is very very deep.
    Thanks Alyn,thank you so much.
    And great work Alyn. This vlog was amazing. The photos were absolutely stunning. I loved it.
    Never put down your love for your passion!
    ❤❤❤🌠🌌

    I don't normally care about sponsors in a video, but my goodness mpb is a great site. Can finally get rid of old lens I don't use and get something more for astrophotography!

  • @bradperry4902
    @bradperry4902 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    A lot of times, I tend to gravitate more towards cooler colours in astro images, but man, do those warm tones in the milky way ever look amazing against that dusty, rocky landscape. Amazing work as always!

    Incredible astro vlog Alyn! Inspiring as always. This vlog is your best yet! Visiting California is definitely high on my list of places to visit for astro. That and probably visiting Utah. I wouldn't mind going back to Oregon again either. It was a real honor meeting you in-person at the Crater Lake and Oregon Coast workshop Alyn. I learned so much from you! I'll never forget my experience I had there!

    • @roadtrippin2781
      @roadtrippin2781 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hopefully he found darker skies down there than Joshua Tree (Bortle 4). Up here in S.E. Oregon we have vast amounts of bortle 1 skies.

    I've been looking forward to this vlog, and for good reason! I enjoyed it thoroughly. Inspires me to go ahead with that next astro trip and at the same time reality checks me that these sleep deprived trips are killing at the same time 😅. Respect for putting out these quality exposures during the whole trip, despite being so tired! Such stunning images!

  • @bradfordpepping8434
    @bradfordpepping8434 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Thanks for sharing the vlog, Alyn! Maybe my favorite to date. I grew up in So Cal, where I fell in love with shooting astro landscapes, so this video really took me home. Thanks for letting me experience this vicariously through you.

    Don’t think all your followers are our Younghans. I’m 68 year old woman and I think your channel is just brilliant. And inspiring. I’m now planning night sky visit both in West Virginia and in Utah this summer
    Also considering about becoming one of your Patreon supporters because I particularly like being part of maybe a Patreon group. Anyway, you’re brilliant I wish you all the best luck living in turkey. You’re just terrific.

    Wow that was a whilrwind trip. Great shots!
    The best way to experience DV is with a Jeep or 4x4 rig camping out. The Racetrack should be your next stop. Saline Valley is epic with the insane wind and salt flats.
    The best spots are off the tourists beaten path. Especially if you don't want em muckin in your shots. Take 2 weeks at least.
    That peace, silence and the Mojave vibe can be addictive.

  • @saccaed
    @saccaed ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Eureka Dunes and Ubehebe Crator would be great spots if/when you get back to Death Valley. Between Lake Tahoe and the Colorado River is some of my most favorite terrain to visit. A camper van definitely is the way to go. There are a lot of areas in Death Valley that would be great for astro photography but are so far from the Hotels / Campgrounds that it's better to have something to spend the night in. Also, end of March beginning of April has a good chance of showers that causes the super blooms.

    Wish I knew what I was doing when I was in Canyonlands, May of last year. I learned a lot from channels like yours so I got the perfect night on Mauna Kea in September and got my first Milky Way shots. For a total beginner, I still look at them in awe. Thank you for all your instruction. I'd like to get to more places to take night shots. Hard in Northeast USA....

    Keep living your best life buddy 👌

  • @nightscapejournals
    @nightscapejournals ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks, Alyn - what a fantastic trip and beautiful images. I needed to see that; I’ve got a trip to Senja for a week planned in October this year to shoot Astro and aurora all week, but recent busyness and post- covid lethargy has had me doubting it’s a good idea. This video just got me right back on track, so thank you! 🙏

    Terrific video Alyn. Your work is exceptional! I immediately related to your walk out onto Badwater Basin in the dark. I was there in January at 4:30am with a group of other shooters and it was still pretty eerie! It certainly would have been more so by yourself. Anyway, thanks for sharing your work and inspiring me in my photographic journey into astro.

    Hi Alyn, I was Stephen friend, the two who leave earlier do to being so cold, great video and encouraging to return to the Area for more astrophotography. I wanted to show one of the photos I took that night; but do not know how to do it. In a way I am glad we leave earlier than expected and leave the spot for you to take additional great photos, great video and photos!

    Hi glad to hear your camera was ok! I know those spots well that’s a hefty drop at arch rock! I also use the astro-modified A7IV and really like the results I’m getting. Using it with the MSM is also great as I can use bulb mode with Bluetooth and some apps on my phone. Cheers!

    Thank you for that video. I lived in California for a decade. Down in San Diego. You can't go West because of the ocean and if you go South you better know Spanish. So north and east was the only way to travel. You're up in Owens valley that was kind of my backyard. Like I said in my other post the night sky in the high desert is fabulous. The stars are much brighter there than anywhere else. I know you enjoyed that trip because I've enjoyed it many times. The pictures you took are awesome. Great job. I'm a little green with envy. LOL

    Sensational stuff. I'm glad I've never had to share locations with groups of people. Or any people for that matter. The most I've had to contend with is headlights if I haven't gotten far enough away from the highway. I definitely need to up my foreground game though.
