The skies cleared up for a bit so I decided to go down the driveway and see if I could get a composition with the Milky Way rising over the break in the trees. I used my 50mm and took 25 8 second photos for the sky. The foreground is a single 3 minute exposure. Sky was staked in Sequator and the sky and foreground were then blended in Photoshop.

This is an older image I captured on Trail Ridge Road in the Rocky Mountain National Park. There are many opportunities to capture the Night Sky at over 10K feet.
For the Sky I captured a four image vertical Pano with each image stacked for 16 images. I used Sequator to stack the images and Lightroom to stich the Pano (Sky). The Foreground is one image.
We had some really nice airglow going during our Bodie night photography workshop in June 2021.

Willett Hill Tower is an 18th century 15 metre tall folly in Somerset built to look like a ruinous church tower which lies just outside of the Exmoor National Park. The hill itself is 280 metres above sea level and crested by dense woodland. I had this composition in mind for some time but had to wait for the autumn and a break in the weather. This particular image was created from a 3 minute exposure for the foreground and five 2 minute exposures taken using the Move Shoot Move star tracker. The sky images were stacked in Sequator along with 11 dark frames. The foreground and stacked sky shots were then blended together in Photoshop with final post processing adjustments of the completed image in Lightroom. I mounted a couple of F+V Z96 video lights on light stands to illuminate the inside of the tower. The Sony A7S used for this image is astro modified and had a Nisi Natural Night filter fitted to the front of the lens.
A different version of the Horsehead and Flame Nebula taken in Hawker. I used 9 frames for the stack, and tried out Sequator for stacking the shots. I really don't know if it did a better job, but certainly worked. I edited the file a bit differently in Photoshop. Nikon D810A on a Celestron CGEM2 mount, Nikkor 600mm F4 VR lens, Astrophotography Tool controlling the camera, PHD2 guiding with a ZWO ASI120MM camera. 20 minute frames @ ISO400, no cooling!
A very last minute trip to the Daymark last night, would you believe that literally seconds after taking these shots thick fog rolled in engulfing everything. To say it was a rush is an understatement.
This is a series of 11 shots stacked in sequator
Due to the unseetled weather that made daytime photography so great this week, it was a little cloudy on this night, but a few days later I was back out there and it was clear.
Two 16mm landscape images stitched. There was a small lightning fire near Mono Craters, so the brownish color reflected appears to be smoke.
We could hear waves crashing on Navy Beach, but this cove was protected from the waves enough to capture some star reflection.
Real reflection (Adjusted in Adobe Lightroom, no Photoshop).
Del pasado mes de abril, inicio de temporada de VL, no fue una noche especialmente productiva entre unas cosas y otras ( olvidé las baterias del traker, además de nieblas y brumas intensas)..
Salí a la una de la mañana de casa y volví justo para una ducha, un café rápido y al trabajo. Solo en viaje de ida y vuelta son unas 5 horas.
Al ser primeros de abril las horas de visibilidad del C.G. son las 3 o las 4 de la mañana, pero también son las mejores fechas para contemplar la vía, pues el Centro Galáctico se ve alto en el cielo lejos de la contaminación luminosa.
Después de todo hubo suerte con las brumas que me dieron un respiro porque me tiré casi una hora conduciendo en tercera sin ver mas que unos pocos metros por delante del coche, por carreteras comarcales y caminos de tierra.
Aquí dejo una imagen resultado de un apilado de 8 tomas de cielo con trípode ( pues como olvié las baterías del tracker no pude usarlo) y una de suelo, con un blending sencillo.

My Dell's Win 10 reached it's sale by date late last week ... lock ups and crashing etc... Time for a reformat and fresh install.
Had a go at one of the other shots of the lighthouse, Kiama to test everything was working again.
It's a bit of a house of cards setting up a pc these days (unless it's a Mac) so your never sure how it's going to run till its done.
Two frames for the foreground ISO100 f/11 2s and 30s
Milkyway - 6 frames ISO 6400 f/5.6 raw developed in DxO PhotoLab 5 - stacked in Sequator and touched up back in PhotoLab
Stack aligned in Affinity Photo - with luminosity masking.
Rays courtesy of Luminar 4 - NB Kiama Lighthouse does emit beams but with that incredibly bright floodlight it was a struggle to expose for them.
Bit of a tweak in Viveza 3 and Color Efex Pro 5 and finally back into PhotoLab for a wash and dry - I did say I wanted to test out the install after all. ☺️

A shot from last nights trip to the Daymark near Kingswear, weather forecasts were very contradictory so I didn't know if going out was going to be worth the effort but as it turned it definitely was! This is a stack of 12 exposures stacked in sequator and edited in lightroom
When I drove to Bodie Island Lighthouse, I saw a reflection of light on the field. As I got walked around, I realized the recent rains flooded the grassy areas which allowed me to get some new compositions. This is a 8 shot stacked shot, combined in Sequator and Photoshop
I got out for a second time to capture Comet Neowise this time heading for a dark spot around the Daymark Tower near Kingswear. Conditions were great with clearing skies and getting their before sunset was able to work out the best place to capture the Comet. I took a lot of images of the Comet and the Milkyway and even captured the ISS. Most of the shots I took were wide angle but for this one I wanted to capture both tails, the white dust tail and the blue Ion tail. I took 19 6 second shots at 130mm and then used Sequator to stack them finsihing off with Lightroom. I must say I was pretty please with the result.

Continuing my testing of post-processing images in Sequator, this time with five images captured in light pollution on an Canon 5D Mark II in 2011.
I turned on my cameras intervalometer and went to bed last night. This is six-hundred (30 second) exposures stacked and blended in Sequator to capture the star trails exposure. I manually blended another exposure for the Christmas tree windows and, another exposure for the building and deck.
Nevada City, California.
This was a fun one. I arrived in Inverness at 4:am, I stood in the very dark, cold night for about 90 minutes listening to odd animal noises - yes, it was fun.
Gonna have to up my winter clothing gear. Warm hands are a must for these adventures. Lesson learned.

The first thing that came to mind with this image was Doc Brown's famous line at the end the original Back to the Future movie... "Roads? Where We're Going, We Don't Need Roads." I could almost envision his old DeLorean time machine lift off, turn around in mid-air, and rocket off towards the milky way's galactic core. ;) Ok, so my imagination probably got the best of me there, but it was pretty easy to let it run with such a beautiful night in the Illinois countryside.
It's always amazing to be able to experience such a stunning dark sky, free of the light pollution we often run into back home. Only wish I could see it more often.

"Roads? Where We're Going, We Don't Need Roads" is a non-HDR image that was processed using a combination of ACR and Photoshop to add brightness, contrast and saturation. Also includes the use of Topaz Labs plugins -- Adjust, Denoise AI, Glow and Impression). Milky Way stars were stacked using Sequator.
I used Sequator to stack and align-
10 light frames
5 dark frames
Then processed in Camera Raw/PScc.
I tried PScc for the align function but Sequator did a better job in alignment, plus Sequator is free.

After 40mm of rain the previous weekend there was a bit of water around, which enabled shots like this! A stack of 9 shots in Sequator, each 10 seconds long, processed in Lightroom, Sigma lens.
Lucky shot with the Andromeda galaxy in the upper left and Polaris in the right of the image. Assembled with Sequator out of 4x30sec images with my new 17-28mm Tamron objective.
Contrary to common wisdom, my camera also works when it is not yet fully dark. So grab your sunglasses, as this post might destroy your night vision...
I captured this lovely scene during my June trip with benjaminbarakat to France. We set up early for the night shooting at an overlook above this beautiful lake in the Pyrenees. During nautical twilight, when the first stars become visible, the landscape is dimly lit by backscattered sunlight. In this magic moments, the landscape takes on pastel hues and the peaks start to glow in pink alpenglow. It is hard to imagine a more tranquil setting.

Last night I let the camera do all the work! I set the intervalometer to shoot 350 (30 second) exposures and went off to La La Land, and slept well I might add. My image blending here is not spectacular - I'm a little rusty, photoshop is seeming difficult, too much time away from my beloved processing.

It was a quiet night on the Lake Mattamuskeet Causeway, plenty of time to set up in the middle of the roadway and take 10 photos to stack. I threw a little light onto the roadway for two of the photos. Stacked the sky in Sequator. Took the resulting file and blended with the light painted frames in Photoshop.
