I thought I had seen all your videos and on one occasion I asked you to show how you lit the foreground and now I see it in this video that I had not seen. Thank you very much for sharing your photographic techniques.
Hi Richard, as usual you're willingness to share secrets (blow-by-blow) is very unique. If it was as easy as you make it look, you'd be out of business. Just brilliant. Thank you.
Thanks so much for watching John, I really appreciate that. I know it's not easy and that's why I keep getting out there to shoot these videos. Lots of people give up and I'm trying to keep the inspiration levels high.
I have no earthly idea why 4 idiots might hit dislike on this fine art video!. Richard, thank you so much for this and other tutorials, I can’t express enough my sincere appreciation and admiration of your work. I follow tens of professional astro and nightscape photographers and you have simply helped and inspired me the most. Thank you 🙏
Wonderful tutorial on the photography technique and the processing technique. Helps me to truly enjoy my efforts at night photography. And how in the world did this get any negative votes? Unbelievable.
I've watched most of your videos... I've come to the conclusion that you are the "Bob Ross" of night scape photography. At the time of this comment, it is February 19th 2020 and the Milky-Way is just over the horizon at 3:45a.m. till astronomical dawn around 5:30a.m. Location: Northeastern Pennsylvania region. I have used Sequator for about 3 years now and have loved it. And your pronunciation of it is correct. This year I'm stepping it up and gonna do more tutorials on this technique and do portraits under the Milky-Way. Love your work!!
First of all Richard, I hope that you are keeping safe where you are as I learned from the news that parts of Australia are being hit very hard with torrential rainfalls and flash flooding. I was just going through your extensive video presentations (I have seen them all and some several times), and found this one which covers shooting to post processing. I thank you for sharing your knowledge and I am inspired to improve my skills under the night skies.
@@nightscapeimages.richard it sure was helpful. Now to go out and give it a crack. This has also sparked some creativity that I never knew existed. I am now thinking of ways to augment this technique into other genres of photography. Thanks so much again.
I don't have a ton of favorites but your channel is one of my favorites. Thanks a ton for showing us your tips. I'm getting a D750 this week to give it a go, hopefully Bob will be my uncle ha ha. Bucket list is to come down one day and go on one of the outings.
Love the content. Be as technical as you like. I like to know how it all works. I am heading off to the bush for a week to try out all your suggested settings. Can't wait.
that's true..especially with photographers..this one of the best I've come across in all aspects that are needed. very thorough and clear without that pompous pride you see way too often...great photo results in the end makes it even better
Thank you Richard for your great videos, it is nice to see that others are finding you and sharing these videos out there too.. you have a great combination of teaching ability mixed with a great outcome.
Thanks so much for watching Steve. You've hit the nail on the head. The whole point of my videos is to show that even quite insignificant foreground objects can become a work of art, especially with the wonderful night sky as the backdrop.
Thanks again for another great video Richard. I've just begun watching UA-cam videos on my big screen TV. Your images look just as nice on the big screen as they do on my laptop.
Richard, thank you so much for the incredible series of nightscape tutorials. You do amazing work and provide me with much inspiration to learn and do something new with my photography. Like several others, I can sit down and watch multiple videos. Appreciate you awesome work and method of instruction.
Thanks ... a great outline for a photo club project. The combination of Milky Way photography, light painting, and, if needed, focus stacking enables a chance to work on many techniques.
Great video Richard , the techniques and editing are simply fabulous and the end results are so interesting to look at , i look forward to every new episode , it must keep you very busy , keep up the great work , many thanks.
Another fantastic tutorial! I've been practicing in my own home with the lights off and lightpainting furniture. After some ridiculous results, I'm starting to get a hang of everything. Can't wait to get outside and take some "real" photos!
Thank you for taking the time to make this very informative video.Your laid back relaxed teaching style is helping me make my own milky way shots.Your start to finish videos are much appreciated.
Another amazing video from you Richard. You have inspired me to start doing light painting so i have ordered a led lenser P7.2 to get started. Thank you so much :) I would like to offer a small tip to speed up / ease your brush resizing in photoshop: If you hold down Alt + right click the mouse you can change the size and hardness on your brush. While holding down both Alt and right mouse drag mouse up/down to adjust hardness and sideways to adjust size.
@@nightscapeimages.richard A question, if I may. Do you find yourself using the 500 rule or 300 rule more often, and is one more advantageous over another when using longer focal lengths?
@@photog1529 I never use the 500 rule. In fact I don't use any particular rules . .but the 300 rule is better because it's a shorter shutter speed and therefore you'll get less star trailing.
Thanks a lot Walter. The image would still be ok as I've done that before. I think it makes a small improvement with the dark frames and it probably depends on how noisy the original images are.
Beautiful photo and wonderful video! Can’t wait to try these techniques on the Saltflats of Uyuni, Bolivia. Thanks for your work in teaching your knowledge in night photography and light painting techniques!
I think about these things from time to time, well the part about taking the things around us for granted and not noticing them, trying to get better at not doing that
Yes it's very easy to get into a routine and forget about the simple things that make us happy .. often the very reason we enjoy photography so much. Thanks for watching.
Wow, just wow. Great video and explanation of your fantastic work again Richard, many thanks. Carried out my first light painted shot on an antique machine in a basement and im pleased with my effort due to all the help from watching your videos. Next step is starry outdoor shots 😊
I thought that I wasn't good enough or my equipment wasn't up to scratch but after watching your videos it's given me a new confidence and I really appreciate your easy to follow tutorials. Well done mate 👏
As per below, your videos are awesome and very inspiring.... We are All constantly learning and improving, even after 30 years of photography, I still love learning new techniques... Keep up the good work mate.
Apart from the tech' in all of your videos, it's the story telling you have mastered. A small suggestion for your workflow in photoshop, use a Group Folder for your Lighten Layers and one mask instead of pasting the mask multiple times. By selecting the background sky and creating a mask of it, you'll have the perfect mask for the foreground subject. When using the brush try using the (Mac) option+command to resize/soften your brush to speed up your process. As always by doing you inspire the rest of the seat warmers!
Thanks a lot for your great suggestions Rodd. I do often use the group function but I like to show the small steps for those who haven't used these options before. Really appreciate your comments.
Hi Richard, a great video once again. I have just found your channel and I am really enjoying watching how you go about your work flow. I am going to try and give it ago but find it difficult to find a spot that is dark enough as light pollution is a problem for me in the UK. Looking forward to seeing more of the same great vlogs. 😀😀
This is my first comment on youtube. Great work, congratulations!!!! Your photography, filming and video editing are extraordinary. I can feel the passion in your work. You are a source of inspiration!!
Hi, awesome Video. Now that I´ve seen your great results and the awesome pictures that you can create with that technique, I´m wondering, if you can also use gimp istead of Photoshop. keep on going, love your videos.
Your Video's are my first place I look when i go on you tube - really good stuff you produce and have watched all your vids multiple times keep up the good work
Thanks very much scottlydot. There is a little bit of info on the Sequator web page and I've seen the odd tutorial on youtube. It's really a pretty simple software.
Mate, just a week or so and she’ll be back! I’m so excited. I watched your light painting video and hope to use it really soon. Love your videos and thanks for inspiring so many...
I really appreciate this series on light painting and editing Richard. Ever since I started watching your program I've wondered how you did the light painting and how you threw it all together in processing. There is a national park about 3 hours from me in California that is in old farms fields with old equipment that I'm going to in about a month or two when the spring flowers come up. Can't wait to give this a go.
Hi, I just got the chance to know your channel, I really appreciate your effort to teach us some good stuff. I am new to photography and I admit I learned a lot from your page. Excited to go outside and try some of your methods. Good job man, really good job.
I like night time shooting and love many of your images. I find that many of my nightscape photography is curtailed because of animals and some bugs. I'm sure you have run into a spider web before, that happens. It's a shock and a mess except when you find a large spider in your car after it climbed off you. Then there are times of extreme concern like when hearing a rattlesnake but have no idea where the sound is coming from. They generally don't bother humans and other large animals unless the snake is just about stepped on, but in the dark, which way do you step! Keep up your work. What do you suggest in places where "nature" happen?
Thanks so much for watching George. Most of my photography happens in the cooler months here in Australia so I don't run into too many wild animals. There are plenty of wild kangaroos out on the roads at night but they don't cause me too much bother.
Thank you for another great tutorial. Looking forward to trying these techniques this weekend. As a Mac user I"ll be using StarryLandscapeStacker to stack my milky way and dark shots.
Just wow, you and your channel are so inspiring! Genius!
Thank you so much for watching.
great learning on how to edit and blend the layers
Thank you so much for watching.
I thought I had seen all your videos and on one occasion I asked you to show how you lit the foreground and now I see it in this video that I had not seen. Thank you very much for sharing your photographic techniques.
Thanks a lot Rodolfo, yes it's very easy to miss the odd video.
Hi Richard, as usual you're willingness to share secrets (blow-by-blow) is very unique. If it was as easy as you make it look, you'd be out of business. Just brilliant. Thank you.

Apart from the tech' in all of your videos, it's the story telling you have mastered. A small suggestion for your workflow in photoshop, use a Group Folder for your Lighten Layers and one mask instead of pasting the mask multiple times.

When using the brush try using the (Mac) option+command to resize/soften your brush to speed up your process. As always by doing you inspire the rest of the seat warmers!
