Adirondacks, Red Sky

Just after the sun has dipped below the horizon across Lake Champlain the sky had a red glow over the Adirondack Mountains.

Red Sky, Adirondacks

Bridge, Early Morning Sky

13 panel panorama stitch, updated with some local and color refinements – the bike bridge in Burlington Vermont and the early morning sky. Light pollution from Montreal to the top, and bright lights at a boathouse and a couple of houses to the bottom.

Early Morning Sky, Bridge – Re-Processed

Originally a 13 panel panorama stitch, this is a cropped version with some color adjustments looking straight up @ the early morning sky in Burlington, VT. Shot from low on the bridge, with a nodal / panorama head on a tripod with a Rokinon 12mm f/2 lens. Stitched in PTGui Pro.

Vertical Panorama – Take 2

A vertical panorama stitch that I reprocessed. This is from Silver Lake, in the Green Mountain National Forest, Vermont as the sun started to lighten the sky. I spent the early hours of the morning capturing Orionid meteors and snapped off a few reflections in the lake. I didn’t realize I had enough images for a pano until I got back to the computer – but I’ve added this to my list of things to try again the next time I have clear skies and interesting landscapes. Imagine, try, fail, learn, repeat.

Re-Processed, Again

Fumlbing around with PixInsight stacking Orion Images

Slight re-processing of my stacked version of ~40 frames of images I shot during my Orionids outing last year at Silver Lake in the Green Mountain National Forest. This image is a bonus – after the fact I decided to stack most of the shots I took and align, register and stack them in Pixinsight. I was trying to catch meteors so I was using a 13s shutter speed, which is a just a bit too long for pinpoint stars, and if I were shooting for stacking I could have stepped the aperture down a bit to tighten up the corner stars. With the stars moving and the software doing the alignment the landscape gets blurred – I haven’t had the patience to blend in a static landscape with this shot – but its on my list of skills to practice.

Three, Stitched

Three images of Three, Stitched. Practicing. Learning. Failing. Tricky light, moving water, reflections. There is no try, do, fail, repeat, learn.
