I've watched several of your videos now Walt and I must say, this is definitely your calling my friend. You present astrophotography better in my opinion than about everyone else I've watched on UA-cam. Keep up the great work man, love the videos.
Great tutorial. Love the alien. In most cases cropping in with a full frame will give you the same result of that by an aps-c sensor. Not that it’s important but it’s often a huge concern of entry level wildlife photographers. Which to buy that is. The only thing I can offer towards the overall is to take multiple bursts of images. Review them afterwards for the best moments of atmospheric clarity. You could be lazy and run a pc grading software too. Depending on the seeing a lot of folks will get that one exposure and it will be soft no matter what they’re doing in edit. Focus creep on cheap lenses too. I had a sigma telephoto that absolutely had to be taped so the zoom wouldn’t change. Just a couple things to add to the chat.
Love the video. It think it’s also worth suggesting that you take many many shots and choose the best. It’s amazing how a lucky image can be so much better than the one either side of it. All due to the vagaries of the atmosphere. A phenomenon called Seeing.
Nice primer on moonshots! (BTW, I do appreciate your natural closing technique--a pet peeve of mine s the (too) common and totally unclassy practice of ending a segment by putting a hand over the lens!). I've also been watching your videos on taking and editing Milky Way shots. Really great points on how to stretch the data and bring out the natural colors--thanks very much!
Good tutorial to capture moon. As i know, these greenish, bluish and reddish glow on moon's corners also can be fixed by opening "Lens corrections" in Develop mode in Adobe Lightroom and set "Remove Chromatic Aberration" on. Used this feature sometimes before for different types of photos.
Thanks for the tips making a nice moon photo. I like taking pictures of the moon too, but often all I have with me is my cellphone. I like the looks of clouds scudding across the moon, too, but trying to balance the brightness of them against the moon is tough.
I did the full Blue moon at ists apoge tonight. I had tried the teo previous nites but general cloudy conditions didn't give me the chance to experiment. Canon 80d One with a 24 to 70 and one with a 70 to 300. F11, iso 400, shutter 400 The longer lens at f11, iso 800, shutter 800 I'm starting to process now.
whenever i take shot of the moon , all looks fine on the camera screen and also after the shot but when i open the raw on the pc its way to bright , is that normal?
You might run the risk of a blurry moon especially at higher focal lengths. The Moon is actually moving across the sky pretty fast. And not only that but it actually wobbles a little bit due to atmospheric turbulence. It's much better to try to get as fast of an exposure as possible.
@@deltaastrophotography I see. I was thinking a 1 or 2 nd filter would keep it from blowing out. Then raise the exposure in post if dark. Thanks for explaining.
That yellin at the moon was was spot on😂
We've all been there, screaming at the moon while trying to photograph the milky way :D awesome video, keep it up!
That’s so me!

Thanks so much Cody!
Thanks for your tutorial, that’s great and simple to understand
Excellent video Walt. I’d like to see you process a mineral moon image to get all the colors
That's not a bad idea for a video!
So great and digestible, thank you!
Great presentation! Like the Star Wars shirt too.
That is out of this world!
watching the video while waiting for the moon to rise. Very helpful advice!
Love all your tutorials. You make them simple and easy to follow, stating the keystrokes, which is very helpful. Thx for sharing. Keep em coming.
I like these videos about using affordable gear to get cool results!
Thanks for the great tips and in such an entertaining way, Walt!
Another great video. Enjoy watching your technique and always very entertaining videos!
Thanks!
brilliant video!! would you recommend taking multiple shots and stacking? if so what software to stack?

Wow that was good. I don't think I could do that in GIMP but that's prob more about me than GIMP.

What application do you use on your computer to correct photos?

great stuff . :)
1:43 … what is an ASPC camera? Is it a Chinese version of APS-C?
Great video and nice explanation of post process. You are one weird dude! But I’m guessing you already know that. Thanks for the lesson.

My D500 has an astrophoto noise reduction setting, (on/off), any recommendations for on, off or doesn't matter?
bro can u recommend a camera for around $650 that is good for astrography as a beginner
Thanks Walt. Could you have taken twenty photos and stacked them
whenever i take shot of the moon , all looks fine on the camera screen and also after the shot but when i open the raw on the pc its way to bright , is that normal?
dang gotta get myself a lens that goes above 55mm
What happens if you use an nd filter on the moon?
You might run the risk of a blurry moon especially at higher focal lengths. The Moon is actually moving across the sky pretty fast. And not only that but it actually wobbles a little bit due to atmospheric turbulence. It's much better to try to get as fast of an exposure as possible.

Why not just convert the image to greyscale?
Justice for uncle Jeff
😂😂
APSC not ASPC 🙃
Yeah I realized I messed that up shortly after I posted. Sorry about that 😂
