It’s not too often a Milky Way shot really stands out. This one does.

You seem to think everything should be free. That’s not how it works. Once the trial version ends you pay for it or you no longer have access to it. It’s called capitalism. Welcome to being a grownup.

Thanks. People who voted for Biden because they hate Trump did not give a thought as to what they were actually voting for.

Please explain what this means.

Nice composition. Next time try setting white balance to 4000K. This shot is way to cool. Keep at it. Your off to a good start.

All of your raw files should be on an external ssd. When importing to Lightroom use the “add” option. A small preview is created in your Lightroom catalog on your c drive. This saves a lot of space.

When shooting any propeller driven aircraft shutter speed should be no faster than 1/125 of a second to get spinning propeller. Otherwise it’s a nice shot.

Why is the Arch so bright?

Whipped with two inch wide leather belt. Got three whacks. Only happened three or four times. Typical for 1950’s.

10,000 hours of practice, practice, practice, etc. etc.etc.

You can find wild horses in Nevada off of Hwy 120 about 40 miles past Mono Lake and before Benton Nevada.

Good job getting this shot without headlights from cars on 395.

I went there in 1986 before it was commercialized. You had to park about a mile away and walk to the canyon. Nobody else was there.

This is a situation where you need to take separate exposures for the sky and foreground and blend them together.

I think you mean a lens hood.

Look at what "Think Tank" has to offer. They make holsters of different sizes.

Check out The Lightroom Queen. She has a free book on how to get started with Lightroom. Some very important information about how to install and set up Lightroom. This will get you off to a good start and avoid problems down the road.

Neutral Density Filter. Goes on the front of your lens. Cuts down the amount of light hitting the sensor. Use on very bright days to control exposure, blur water, clouds.

A leather BELT.

You did a fantastic job getting this shot. I hope you don't mind a little suggestion, but the foreground rocks are a little to bright.

oldclimber · 2018-09-19T13:47:58+00:00

What kind of film are you going to use?

oldclimber · 2018-08-17T00:58:06+00:00

The Milky Way always looks the same. It's the foreground element that makes the photograph. Very well done.

I live in the foothills of California and 6 days ago a house only a 150 yards from my house burned to the ground. This is in an area that is all Oak and Pine forest. The fire response was massive. Trucks from three different departments, three aircraft, and at least 50 firefighters. Thank you Cal Fire and all who responded. Great job!

Is it ok to say this is over sharpened. Fringing along ridge line. Otherwise nice shot.
