    Hi just FYI, no access to Mt. John at night either hike or car. You definitely need to book stargazing tour at Dark Sky Project as you mentioned. Cowans observatory is also belong to them and running tour. Hope you enjoyed staying there under a beautiful dark sky.

    I love how you tell stories on each and every detail you see around Lake Tekapo, I just recently subscribed and so far your videos and story telling style is what I found the best travel videos so far, the footages are amazing clear beautiful shots, you're such a great video maker, editor and story teller! They are very cinematic, Well done! I can't wait to watch more of your videos in the past, present, and future.

    Lol, I love "if you wanted to torture yourself, you could bring six kids with you"! 😂 That dark sky project building is new since I've been (it was about 12 years ago, to be fair!). I love Tekapo so much, there's definitely a serenity there. Went up when my daughter was 6, and I really wanted to do the night sky tour, but I didn't want the other adults to hate me for bringing a kid that might be grumpy with staying up late, so we didn't do it, but I wish I could share the picture we took on top of Mt John with me lifting her up, with her arms in the air and Lake Tekapo in the background (I'm sure you know the spot I mean!). I hope Charlotte was feeling well enough to see it. Thank you for another awesome video (and I didn't realise how long your hair is, Cory - so jealous, lol!). Love you guys! Plus the clouds pouring over the hills at the end was stunning (as was your night sky) - thank you - it was so, so beautiful and makes me want to go back ❤🤗

    Hey guys. Always an awesome informative video as usual. Tekapo is beautiful, i didnt get to see the night sky but you got a nice time lapse - and the beautiful sunrise. Do you film all your time lapses (in particular the night time lapse) on your big vlogging camera ?

    • @cjexplores
      @cjexplores  7 місяців тому +1

      Hi Lisa! Yeah, the night lapse is filmed on our GH5 by taking a series of long exposure images. But our main vlogging camera is now a small little DJI pocket 3. It’s so discrete and great quality.

    My wife and I are going this september, what camera equipment did you use/do you recommend to take pictures and video of the night sky? They turned out great!

    • @cjexplores
      @cjexplores  6 місяців тому

      Awesome, great time of year to go. I used a LUMIX GH5 on a tripod to capture the stars. I also used our DJI Pocket 3 to create one of the Timelapse’s but it’s a bit more grainy than the GH5’s long exposures. I would only recommend taking your photography gear if you were interested in night photography or you just wanted to give it a go! ☺️
