  • The dark skies of Big Bend National Park in Southwest Texas offer unparalleled views of the milky way and night sky. Rugged and beautiful by dark, Big Bend National Park's canyons, mountains, and desert become magical by night.

    You mentioned frame stacking for some of your videos? Sounds interesting as I’ve been looking into something similar for timelapse myself. You mind if I ask your process as you seem to have a pretty handle on things from the looks of it. Excellent work 👍

    • @astrotennessee
      @astrotennessee  Рік тому

      Thanks so much. I use a combo of sequator for doing the stacking and then batch processing in photoshop for adjustments post stacking. Equator is key as it really helps to take care of the noise. Only thing I would do differently is UA-cam really kills the airglow with its compression so for future videos I would render at 6k or 8k and upload at that higher resolution hoping to keep the background airglow more intact. It looks choppy and jumpy on UA-cam, but it much smoother before upload.

      @@astrotennessee Thanks a bunch for responding as I really appreciate it. I've used stacking software in the past but mainly for still images as I never really figured out a good way to integrate stacking for a moving timelapse sequence. Any advice on a good process or workflow with Sequator would be a big help as I'm burnt out trying to rid of noise on single images when theres obviously a better way. My name is Chris by the way and thanks in advance for anything you could pass along to maybe help.

    • @astrotennessee
      @astrotennessee  2 місяці тому +1

      The camera sees more color than the human eye in the dark and is more sensitive, but yes, these are all 100% real images taken in Big Bend. With just the naked eye, Big Bend is one of the best places in the country to see the milky way. Coming from the city where on a good night you may be able to see a few hundred stars, under dark skies, there are millions.

      Thanks. I used frame stacking for some of the videos. Unfortunately youtube compression shows up quite a bit in the movement of the airglow, which is really smooth before compression, but choppy after.

      @@GODwillexalt4938 Funny thing... there are over 10,000 'gods' being worshipped (conservative estimate), which means that the odds of a theist like yourself being correct are 1:10,000. The odds of an atheist being correct are 1:2.
      Also, isn't it funny how every religion thinks their chosen deity is the 'only true god'.

      Real as the camera sees it. I understand why people ask this as all the fakery in astrophotography has ruined some of the joy of looking at and sharing images now. That's one of the reasons I like taking timelapses. All of these except the last image are just a series of 5-15 second shots strung together. The skies in Big Bend are dark and amazing, so even with the naked eye it looks far different than what most people see on a clear night.
