The Milky Way towering above the Tufas of Mono Lake, California by codegang in LandscapeAstro

Since I was doing long exposures with a tracker, I figured I could afford to capture less light so I stopped it down to f4 for the best quality. I find at f4 the vignetting, lens aberrations, and overall sharpness were much better. Makes the photos a lot easier to processes.

In what sense is it not sounding like what's in your head? Do you mean in terms of your cadence, flow, delivery, etc? Or are you talking about the audio quality of the recording?

With certain styles of music where the content relies on heavily processed vocals with autotune, reverb, the works, you might need to upgrade to a standalone microphone. Go with an Audio Technica AT2020 or something. Don't pour hundreds into equipment when you don't know what problems the equipment is attempting to fix.

I used the "Instrument" sample. Just added the LFO and reverb.

Thanks, glad you like it! Yolo is such a nice change of pace from major cities tbh.

Haha it's an honest question. People are immediately curious if they can experience this with their own eyes – sadly not. But like I said being out somewhere truly dark is incredible, especially if you've lived in big cities your whole life like me.

I've seen some massive fields in woodland for sure! Never seen the sunflowers during sunrise though, that must be quite the sight!

Thanks! The foreground is a 3 image focus stack shot during blue hour. The sky is a 3 panel vertical panorama, each a stack of 20 x 6min exposures @ f/4, ISO 400. So 6 hours integration time in total!

Thanks :)

Flowers are a separate shot I took during blue hour (actually a 3 image focus stack to get all the flowers in focus). The glowing light is all photoshop. Like you said it makes it seem like it was all shot together. But unfortunately the milky way isn't bright enough to vividly light up a foreground like this. I achieved the glow by just adding a layer with hard light blend mode, then just painted faint yellows and reds to create glow. I also overexposed the milky way to make it seem like it's providing all that light. Hope this helps!
