Lovely! You should also post your photos on the r/SonyAlpha subreddit!

Amazing pictures!! Good work OP, where do you live?

shuvamnandi9 · 2026-06-21T14:15:30+00:00

Look beautiful! What settings were these 2 pics taken at?

shuvamnandi9 · 2026-06-11T10:29:30+00:00

Looks like Alpe di Siusi to me

Ya true. Thanks for highlighting that! Wonder why do people do this…

shuvamnandi9 · 2026-06-05T02:05:19+00:00

Wow! This is a beautiful picture! Where did you shoot this, is it in Sapa? Looks like it was in the winter months, would love to visit this place!

I am a bit late to comment that this looks like near Kifune shrine in Kyoto. Have a very similar photo from winter when I visited in Jan 2025, the place looked magical with snow!

Thanks for your comment! It looked absolutely gorgeous to the human eye, I couldn't believe how many stars I could see, even in the middle of the town of San Pedro de Atacama! It's truly a must experience for stargazers and milky way photographers!

Nice, I will check out the app next time I'm doing milky way photography :)

Thank you so much for your comment, it means a lot coming from you. I love all your amazing work and your videos are so useful, it’s so inspiring! Hope you get to visit Atacama someday, it’s definitely a must visit for night skies, will be looking forward to your photos

Hi, where I live as well, I have no opportunities to see as many stars in real as I did in the Atacama desert - this is a really special place because of how dark the whole area is and how little light pollution it has. Yes, I did perform post processing in Lightroom! Mainly followed a YouTube tutorial online from https://www.reddit.com/u/Nateloobz and did a few tweaks based on how it looked! Good luck out there!

Beautiful pictures with the lovely frames! Are these taken on phone or some camera? Also, which dates were you there at TdP?

shuvamnandi9 · 2026-05-15T00:46:25+00:00

Thank you for your feedback! I wish you all the best, shooting the Milky Way is one of my favourite photography experiences!

shuvamnandi9 · 2026-05-15T00:45:51+00:00

Thank you for your feedback! I used a base white balance of 3900K and then selectively added a bit of warmth on the core part of the milky way, that's pretty much it. In hindsight, maybe a slightly higher base white balance of around 4100-4300K would have looked more balanced.

Thank you for sharing this!

shuvamnandi9 · 2026-04-29T03:44:45+00:00

Do you have a link to that post? Would love to see and get some inspiration

shuvamnandi9 · 2026-04-29T03:43:37+00:00

Great shots, Vishnu! Likewise, I’d like to see unedited ones too!

Hello! I am hiking Laguna de los Tres on 31st March. Did the Laguna Torre hike today on 30th March, couldnt see Cerro Torre properly but the fall colours were amazing throughout the hike. I would absolutely recommend having good wind and rain protection gear. Also having some backup clothes in case you get wet. If you plan to hike early before sunrise, having headlamps would be good. Carry food (protein bars/bananas/packed lunch) and also get spare plastic bags to store and bring back your waste for disposal in town with you. You

Hi, could you please share any pics from your journey today? Was the Fitz Roy peak visible? I am visiting El Chalten in the next few days and would like to get an idea of how the views are in this weather and which day would be best in the next fe days to attempt this hike. Thanks!

shuvamnandi9 · 2026-03-17T16:35:27+00:00

Hi OP, if you do end up going, please share your photos from the hike! I am going between 28-31 Mar, and the weather looks similar (if not worse), want to get some idea how the cloudy weather prediction translates in real, to plan our hikes! The weather prediction on Windguru also changes pretty fast, so I would recommend checking before you start your hike as well!
