Could catch only one meteor over this small village in Frankonia. However, the colors are like in the physics-book: front: red (glowing), tail: green/blue excited nitrogen from the atmosphere.
About 400 pictures @8sec, stacked with "sequator". The "glow" on the horizon looks a bit akward (and is an artefact of "sequator", I think), maybe someone can give me a hint how to avoid it?
Apparently stored in a shed or garage that collapsed on it, I've been wanting to shoot this vehicle at night for a while. With our 4-night workshops that include 2 in Bodie, we can visit a wider variety of locations and subjects within the Park.

This is a photo of one of the peak nights of the Perseid Meteor Shower over Mt. Hood. I blended in numerous photos to showcase all the meteors that my camera captured over a 4 hour period of continuous shooting
Watching countless shooting stars literally "sizzle" as they soared past me was a wonderful and chilly experience sitting alone high in the Mt. Hood National Forest. The Eye of Sauron-looking part of the image on the right side of the horizon is a rising crescent moon🌙 as it breaks through heavy clouds in the atmosphere.

Hallo zusammen
Hier habe ich wiedermal versucht, die Milchstrasse aufzunehmen. Ich habe nun auch erstmals meinen Polaire Star Tracker eingesetzt....
Dieses Aufnahme ist eine Stacking von 15 Aufnahmen und dieses Stacking wurde mit Sequator erstellt......
Ich hoffe das Bild gefällt euch.

I joined Friends of Photography Meetup for some evening fun shooting the sunset and Milky Way at Pigeon Point Lighthouse in Pescadero, CA. I was a little concerned about the clouds and marine layer as we were driving down, but things held out nicely and I was able to do my first Milky Way Shoot. I stacked my images using Sequator and I am glad I did. There was a big difference in quality between using the stacking software and just using the individual photo. I'm sure with practice I'll get a little better. I also used my nisi reverse NDG filter for the sunset photo. This filter is quickly becoming my favorite.
As it would be probably the last night of the milkyway season in 2020 I couldn't resist to take the chance to shoot the stars. And so I did; this is, just like my previous picture, in the German Eifel area, at the Rursee.

Story:
First day of the new season has arrived. As we are slowly heading into Autumn, we have to say goodbye to the Milky Way for a while. This picture is the result of a perfect camping at Durdle Door on 1st of September. The Milky Way was fantastic that night. After I have finished to capture the foreground, me and my girlfriend were heading back to the top of the cliff, and slowly walk along the edge of it to find a good spot to set up my tracker and start shooting the Milky Way. There were another 2-3 person aswell, nightowls like us, enjoying the night sky. Bortle 4 sky.

This is the abandoned but picturesque Locust Grove Church in rural Sherman County, Oregon. It was built in 1895 and was last used in 1914, for a funeral, according to a sign on the property. Early on this morning from about 1:30 to 3 I set about shooting it with the Milky Way as a backdrop. I had to wait 5 hours from the time of sunset for the Milky Way to be positioned where I wanted it. Then I snapped off twelve 11-second exposures in succession (30mm, f/2.8, ISO 10000 for those keeping score), combining them later in Sequator to increase the signal to noise ratio. During the exposures I held up a palm-sized light panel to dimly illuminate the structure.
The roof and spire definitely have "had some work done", as they're made of aluminum. So I don't believe they are original. But that spire sure looks good!
Wide curves of star trails over some badlands seen from my campsite in the southern part of Anza-Borrego Desert State Park on the night of January 4, 2020. Shot with a Canon EOS R and Canon 17-40mm f/4L lens at 124 minutes (stacked exposures) f/4 ISO 3200. foreground illuminated by the moon.
I had hoped to capture the much hyped Quadrantids meteor shower, but it turned out to be a dud. I shot around 2000 frames and only managed to capture one teeny tiny baby meteor (doo doo doo doo). Still, a never feel like a camping trip in the desert is ever a "waste of time" just because I didn't get the shots I had originally hoped for. The experience of camping in peace, quiet, and solitude under the stars is always nice regardless of what I successfully photograph.
It was a beautifully clear night last night to I went out with a few other photographers from the Liskeard Camera Club and we headed to Whitsand Bay, first stop was Rame Head which I’ve visited before but then we headed to Portwrinkle. This is one of my favourite beaches along Whitsand Bay as there’s a huge choice of compositions available, but inspired by a shot by Matt Stansfield I decided to take the Milky Way at the end of the old harbour wall… this is a shot I’ve taken many times during the day, but it was very special last night being on the rocks with the water flowing all around as the tide reseeded.
I’ve also been testing Sequator to stack the stars which really has improved the time it takes to merge multiple exposures, I wasn’t entire happy with the colour (though I don’t think that’s Sequator’s fault) so I decided to convert to monochrome and add a blue tint which gives it a bit of an “other worldly” feel.
Kicking off Milky Way season with Miguel at Tioga Lake, CA, that peak is Mt. Dana. The pale yellow glow on the right horizon is light pollution from Fresno, 90 miles southwest. EXIF shows 9,684 ft elevation at this spot.
Lens is the DFA 55mm f/2.8 on the 645Z. This is a 2 frame pano/stacked median blend using 15, 8-sec star exposures at ISO 5,000, fed into Sequator and StarXTerminator. The exposure is cranked because the only light on the mountain is coming from the stars. To the naked eye, Mt Dana was merely a black void in the starfield. To be clear, this is not a composite; that is, the milky way was in that precise position over the mountain and neither it's position nor size have been changed. The stacking was incorporated to achieve noise reduction.
Thanks Miguel for the outing! My son Parker also made his first photo trip with dad, so that was exciting. We spent much more time driving(social distancing in separate vehicles no less) than actually shooting, but it was well worth it! Though Dad loved it, Parker reports he will think twice before agreeing to any future journeys of this nature.
Hope you like this one!

Day 5 of waking up at 4am to watch this cosmic spectacle. I enjoyed viewing it through my telescope while taking the exposures for this shot.
I wanted to try a new technique/software I've heard of but haven't used yet. I shot a lot of "quick" exposure frames each at 3.2 seconds. I wound up stacking 45 of those using Sequator to keep the landscape static but align and stack the moving parts of the sky. It allows for low noise photos of the moving night sky against a landscape with no tracking mount. I chose my 85mm f/1.4 it's my fastest telephoto lens to allow me to do as short of exposures as possible. Every time I use that 85 I remember why I can't ever sell it...it's just a killer lens.
"Marooned"
I imagine celestial smoke signals from the scrub fire across the estuary, as the setting Milky way aligned perfectly with its glow.
In the sky, millions of other stars burn brightly, reflecting in the water, along with the Large Magellanic Cloud & Carina Nebula.
How many of these stars have planets orbiting them with the elements for life?
The plan was to shoot from another spot around the corner - Lake Clifton, but a breeze was blowing which meant an end to any Star reflections in the water. A quick drive to Island Point where the estuary was glassed off.

Testing shorter exposures and longer focal lengths with sky stacking (15 seconds at 29mm here), also different workflows to preserve the aurora-like green airglow in the night sky.
If the light pollution is going to be directly under the Milky Way, might as well put it where it can draw attention to the subject.
Single press of the shutter release, several adjacent images moderately post-processed (about a minute to capture and a couple of minutes to adjust). Done.
No compositing/time-shifting.
No tracking mount.
No noise images, no long exposure foreground images.
No special lighting, or added light.
No new camera or back-lit sensor.
No multiple focal lengths, no focus stacking.
No Photoshop, no layers, no sky or foreground substitution (just Lightroom and a shareware app or two).
Night photography doesn't have to be complicated or time-consuming, or involve special gear beyond camera, lens, tripod. Many cameras produced in the last 13 years and probably all in the last 4-8 years can capture shots like this. I've re-processed images and produced great results from my 2009 Canon 5D Mark II and crop sensor 70D. Join our workshops to find out how!
