LOL no... trust me, I feel like mines are only okay. There's obviously lots of room for improvement haha.

A photographer at buttonwillow told me that we are usually the hardest on ourselves with our work.

Those look great! :thumbs up

Awesome dude. Do you have any experience using DeepSkyStacker software? I'm messing around with it for the pictures I took last night but am only getting shitty results. The stacking feature on the camera gave me better results so my settings on the software must be wrong.

I have no skill at this, I still make myself shoot anything interesting or potentially worth sharing.

never even heard of that. i just used an app on my phone to add my watermark. the area i was in was pitch black and the milky way was barely visible. there wasnt even that many stars when looking up, but after taking that pic, i realized i was soooo wrong.

that orange glow isnt the sun. it set behind me. that glow is city lights beyond the horizon.

Mind if I ask what equipment and settings you used? I was out the other night with no moon, staring away from light pollution and mine look nothing like that.

It's a photo stacking program for astro shots

SONY SLT-A57-K
wide angle adapter
tripod
manual focus
remote
30 second shutter speed
ISO 800 or 1600 depending on area

thats pretty much it. i know i could get better shots if i messed with the camera more but it was so damn cold. condensation started to form on my cam.
