The opening scenes were great John those rolling hills mate are magnificent. I remember a while back you had a vlog showing how to edit and how you accentuated the line of the hills, so s this the same spot? The first image the detail is incredible both in the sky and foreground. We were out at Yenyenning Lakes and we got tons of green airglow. The second image is a bloody ripper ! Incredible, sensational and inspiring work mate.

John you rocked it again. Outstanding video and audio. Thanks for sharing your knowledge of Astro-Milky-Way photography. Hope to consume some beers with one day under a clear night sky. Stay safe. Glad there’s no snakes here in Hawaii. Mahalo and Aloha.

Great picture again. Respect. Can you tell how many rows and have many pics to achieve that on a 40 mm. Sky and ground. Thx you. Love the context.

@johnrutterphotography

Thanks mate, at 40mm I normally shoot about 14 images wide and 4 rows for the sky and 1 row for the foreground, plus a few extra images to get tops of trees. So normally around 70 total images, there about

I'm so glad I've watch so many of your videos! My 14mm manual focus switch broke when I went out and was stuck with my 50mm. I knew exactly what to do thanks to your videos and the shot came out amazing! I could have used one more row but regardless I'm so happy with it!

Thanks mate 👍 we do get a stunning view, and for the most part the snakes leave you alone, although that night one snake was pretty angry so......no thanks 🤣🤣

Two cracking shots mate, makes me realise how much I miss areas like the Glouster tops. Quick question, now that you have got your exposures down to a minute are you still levelling the camera every second shot or can you leave it for a few more?

@johnrutterphotography

2 жыл бұрын

It is such a beautiful spot, I think il go back a bit more. Good pick up on the levelling, I now let it go about 5-6 shots because of the exposure time

Amazing panos, John! Just curious, when shooting with your A7rII, do you connect an external battery pack?

yep wide open, I shoot with 50% overlap and vignette gets fixed in post and any Coma gets taken care of by overlap, although this lens performs extremely well wide open
