Someone very wise once said "Life is not about the number of breaths we take, it is about the moments that take our breath away".
Shot last night at Glacier Point, Yosemite.
Pano of 5 shots stitched in PS. Used Topaz denoise for the first time. Impressive results for this software.

Always shoot for the moon, at the very least you'll land among the stars.

This is a shot I had envisioned for qAhh...the high you feel when a shot comes together!
I had envisioned this image for quite a while and I was elated when I finally made it happen! It required so many things to line up. First, clear skies during an early spring Milky Way. Second, sufficient snow coverage to help illuminate the landscape at night. Third, low wind for the long exposures. Fourth, stable snow conditions to minimize avalanche danger. And finally, the most elusive and scarce element, time (I'm usually running Milky Way Workshops in the Southwest in Spring)!
We set off late in the evening and arrived just before the Milky way was in the prime position. We set up a small tent as a prop and felt it added additional interest to the pano. In the darkest hours of the night, we were like two kids beaming with glee!
Tech Specs: I did two passes for this pano - all at 17mm. First pass was for the sky at 10sec ISO 10,000, f/2.8. I stacked 8 shots for noise reduction. I then took a second pass for the foreground (same exact position) and took that at 45sec ISO 3200 for improved landscape detail.
An AI and cloud based image. AI satellite and stars with a couple of my own cloud and moon photos. I heard today that the Russian Far Side of the Moon project was unsuccessful with the Luna 25 crashing. HMMM

It's great to see the galactic core of the Milky Way returning to our night skies! And with no moon this week, it's the perfect time to come to the desert Southwest. The Outsiders Photo Conference is happening this weekend and we only have 5 in-person tickets left! I'm so excited for this event, especially with Paul Nicklen as the keynote speaker. If you can't come in-person, virtual tickets are available and you can watch all sessions up to a year after the conference. I hope to see you there!!
Soffio sottile come brezza e' la carezza del tuo sguardo. Nella contemplazione dell'azzurro, sento la pace dell'anima e ogni creatura rappresenta vera armonia dell'universo.

After chasing this shot for a couple of years its nice to finally cross it off the list!

For most of the evening I was alone at this location, attempting improvement of my long exposure photography skills, and at times while alone I seem to reflect more on life, both spiritual as well as physical. There are not many places much better than this, looking over the calm waters of Price Lake, the only sounds other than an occasional passing vehicle, are the song of a whippoorwill somewhere nearby, the splash at water’s edge, a rustle in the brush around your location, all that add to being out in our nighttime natural world…
Later I was joined by Boone photographer Tommy White as we both marveled at the clarity of the Milky Way, while making plans for future photo shoots…

Guilderton lighthouse, a favourite of mine.
On this night, we see a garden of celestial objects with Venus setting towards the western sky, illuminated by the Zodical Lights.
Saturn stands close to Antares and Mars transits the core of the Milky Way. On the left of the frame is the Large Magellanic Cloud, just above the light pollution coming from Perth city.
This panorama consists of 30 individual frames.

Milky Way Pano - Shenandoah National Park, VA
I finally got my opportunity at shooting a Milky Way panorama while its arc was low, and w/o having to use a fish eye or super wide lens to do so. It is only in this position for a few short weeks in Spring here in Virginia. I missed out last year due to the only clear nights being on weekday work nights, and that was the case again this year, but I bit the bullet this year and done it. Yeah, not a pleasant day at work afterwards, but to me it was worth it.
During the first of the month of April, around 3am, its arc is centered East at about 25° high when it rises and it stretches from South to North. By the end of the month, it stands about 35° high. Since the peak of the Milky Way’s arc is so low in April, this is the time to shoot panoramas that show it stretching across the frame. By the first of the month in May, the peak of its arc is about 40° high. By the end of May, its arc is high in the sky, and will continue to be until next April.
3 stitched images taken at 4:26 am - 20 seconds each @ ISO 3200, f/2.8, w/ a Bower 14mm.
THANKS FOR VIEWING!
The Milky Rises over Sedona's Thunder Mountain as seen from one of the many sandstone caves that can be found in the area. The orange glow is from the city of Sedona. The purple hues along the horizon is from smoke from nearby wildfires.
The exposure time shown is for the blue hour shot I took earlier. I then moved to the mouth of the cave to shoot the night sky an hour and a half or so later with a star tracker. That exposure was 4 minutes at f/4 and iso 800. The resulting images were then blended in photoshop to achieve this final image.

Have you ever had a meal that was a little too big so you saved the leftovers? That's what solar systems do with leftover dust, rock, and ice… they freeze 'em. If that material doesn't get pulled in to make stars or planets, it continues flying around as big frozen balls of dust & rock (aka comets). Comet Leonard had a similar path (flying through space in 2021) until it had a close encounter with our sun. This encounter was so close it resulted in the eventual breakup and disintegration of Comet Leonard.
Calibrated images of Comet Leonard were provided by Blake Estes from iTelescope.net. In addition to providing access to their telescopes, iTelescope.net provides subscribing members with a combination of premium image sets (with the rights to use & post them) and webinars that show how to process them. Itelescope.net captured the images and I did the post-processing with Astro Pixel Processor, Photoshop and Topaz Denoise. Star spikes are natural.
