Hopefully the sky will clear for better viewing tonight
I don't know why when I watched this content, I felt so nostalgic, sentimental, and happy, which made me smile ❤
Thanks for this, thinking of chasing the Perseids this weekend, have a couple 'bortle 2' spots nearby so I may give it a shot. Have shot Milky's but not meteors.
Cool video! I used Photo Pills a lot when I went out to Sedona, AZ last summer.
Glad you found it helpful!!! PhotoPills is the best for sure :D
@@mallorydavisphotography It really is. I don't know why I waited so long to get the app. It is well worth the money that's for sure LOL!
I've missed you. I know this is a side hustle but I look forward to your content. Thanks for what you do.
Very helpful info!
Great video.Thankyou for tips and advice.Just need clear skies now.
Shot my first shower during the geminids this year, Can't wait to do it again. thanks for the video very helpful
So glad you were able to get out and enjoy/ capture! It was too cloudy here in Texas so here’s hoping Perseids is clear!
Awesome job. You are close to me so this seems more relevant. Ft Hood.
Just in time for the Perseid meteor shower too. Thank you for the awesome video
Good video, and I lke your tips. Hopefully I will have clear skies tonight in Eastern NC.
Mallory, a really well-done video. A couple of points on what I do. After I achieve focus, I put gaffers tape on my focus ring so I don't knock it out of focus during the night. I also don't aim for the radiant point but instead, I aim about 45-90 degrees away from the radiant point. I see more meteors in that area than the radiant.
Great suggestion! I like the thought of giving yourself some room to allow the radiant to work thru your frame! Happy shooting, there’s another smaller one in a few days i think!
For the day will come when this sky will clear up and Clouds will be gone ,I'll be capturing the stars from dusk till dawn.
Gotta love bonus tips 🔭
Great tips.. I live in the city and have “shoot in a dark place” on my list of things to do.
Thank you for making this video.
How do you still only have 4k subscribers? That's criminal!
No time to post regular content 😭
lens warmer is also very important.
Great call!!! I live in such a warm climate i honestly don’t even own one but this winter has been extra dewy so will have to grab one soon!
Here in the UK we definitely need lens warmers. If you are away from a power source, a good tip is to use a hand warmer (the type you 'charge up' by boiling in water for a few minutes') They stay warm enough for several hours.
That's how I feel about clouds also
Loved this! Thanks! I will be trying to capture the Geminids shower with my new A6700 + 15mm 1.4 and as a complete noob I am extremely intimidated & worried! 😵
Great advice, Mallory!
Thanks Ian!!! We have to shoot together sometime 🫶🤩
😮 So Cool!!
I travel today to the middle of Nevada to a 9905 ft plateau in the Toiyabe range. No moon, No clouds and No smoke from the western fires. I'm looking forward to it.
Waiting for your results!

Hwo
Greetings, friend, how are you, I'm from Panama, I'll soon go to a dark place to take the Milky Way and more. April 8, wait for it.
Great great great|||
Mallory, were you using a star tracker when shooting the meteors? If not, do you move the camera to follow the radiant point of the showers? When you input the camera and lens info into PhotoPills, is that the maximum exposure length to not get star trails? Thanks, Charlie S.
Yep photo pills shows you the amount of exposure time you can have before stars start trialing based on your camera and lens info
Weather.. ugh. Ruined last night/morning today
