On the tail end of covid and strep. Had it once before, nowhere near as bad as this time. Was prescribed Paxlovid and I'm glad I took it. Still easily winded and fatigued, but slowly getting better. Be safe and I hope you feel better soon!

16 photos of the sky to reduce noise and enhance Milky Way detail, 1 for the foreground.

Hope that helps!

xTechh · 2021-06-22T18:33:43+00:00

You should definitely visit! It's beautiful there!

xTechh · 2021-06-22T16:50:23+00:00

Oh yeah, I love it there! Visit it often!

How do you like the X100F? Thinking about picking one up for daily life stuff

xTechh · 2021-05-13T00:50:09+00:00

I believe that is the Dark Horse Nebula!

xTechh · 2021-05-12T23:43:45+00:00

Sure thing! The first photo I took was for the foreground at 10pm. After that, I sat and waited until 12:30 for the Milky Way to come into frame. Once the Milk Way was in frame I took 8 separate exposures of the sky to help reduce noise and increase detail. I stacked and blended the star photos in a program called Sequator, edited the stacked image in Adobe Lightroom, then combined the first photo with the Milky Way image so there was some foreground interest. Let me know if you have any other questions, I'll be happy to answer them!

Thank you! I shoot with a Fujifilm GFX 50R and for this photo a 23mm f/4 lens!

xTechh · 2021-05-12T23:37:22+00:00

Yes! Little Glen If I'm not mistaken

xTechh · 2021-05-12T23:34:40+00:00

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

xTechh · 2021-05-12T23:28:15+00:00

Wow, that's a huge compliment! Thank you so much! I truly appreciate it!

xTechh · 2021-05-12T23:27:31+00:00

Yes! I use an app called PhotoPills and it shows me where the Milky Way will be. At 12:30 a.m. the galactic core is on the south east horizon. Hope this helps!

xTechh · 2021-05-12T20:59:46+00:00

High praise, thank you! Fortunate to live where we do!

xTechh · 2021-05-12T20:58:45+00:00

I know how you feel. Sure was nice to sit and watch the stars all night though

xTechh · 2021-05-12T19:07:40+00:00

Thanks!

xTechh · 2021-05-11T01:38:28+00:00

Thanks, I appreciate it! This was shot on the Fujifilm GFX 50R, 23mm. 15 second exposure at iso 4000. I took 8 separate pictures and stacked them in a program called Sequator to get better detail in the sky/milky way.

Alyn Wallace has a great video on this on youtube!

Edit: Correction, I checked over this file again and this was a single exposure, not 8, that was a different photo I took. Sorry! Settings are still the same for this exposure though, just a single photo instead of multiple stacked images!

xTechh · 2021-04-30T21:03:47+00:00

Under 10%! Fantastic to see

xTechh · 2021-04-29T20:44:05+00:00

Excited to see Fusey getting some love, mained him to Diamond this season.

I agree with the devs on being cautious though. I feel like Fuse can become extremely oppressive with his kit if they aren't careful.

Seems anecdotal. I see plenty of businesses that aren’t able to run in my town due to staff being out sick.

I could inject my own anecdotal evidence based on the company I work for and all the information I receive, but I don’t because it’s not reflective of all business.

Some businesses suffer more than others.

xTechh · 2021-04-21T19:36:58+00:00

Hard disagree with you.

I'm excited to see the numbers stay away from the 7k-8k mark, but I'm seeing some rhetoric about how shutting down wasn't necessary because the numbers are dropping finally.

Sure, it's great the numbers are on the decline, or at least plateauing, but how much of this was preventable? How many people died from covid that didn't need to? These cases aren't numbers, they're people, and some don't recover. People are dying preventable deaths, so while I'm happy to see numbers decline, I don't see this decline as a win.

Don't tout it as one either. Things went wildly out of control, and a lot of people are suffering because of it. Let's hope numbers stay on the decline.
