Taking a Picture of PLEIADES From My Backyard...

[@aaron_r.574]

@Had Tobe Flat I'm not sure if this might be a joke or something. It's round

[@aaron_r.574]

@Had Tobe Flat water sure us level. But due to its large size and your size, you can't see the curvature with the bare eye. And water wouldn't spill off sure to gravity. Everything is getting pulled down to the core with gravity.

[@aaron_r.574]

@Had Tobe Flat yes it can due to gravity

[@jujubean7664]

@Had Tobe Flat oh no we have a flat earther. Please get your nonsense out of here.

[@aaron_r.574]

[@mizzmezz]

Almost every time you show the finished image i tear up. How can something this beautiful even exist?

[@chandanabhignan8027]

Ikr, space is beautiful and this is just 0.0001% of space theres so much more to explore its breathtaking..

[@VibingBlueViper]

@@chandanabhignan8027fun fact we have explored more of our universe then the ocean lol

[@Master_Ace.]

@@VibingBlueViperpretty sure that’s a myth because we can technically only see a certain distance in space due to the light not reaching us yet. The universe could theoretically be infinite

[@mgmcd1]

When I was younger I called the Pleiades the “tiny dipper,” since that’s what it looked like to me. It’s always been easy to pick out.

[@tadgmaniandevil]

My girlfriend calls it her Little Dipper😂

[@Killbayne]

Me too! Always mistakenly thought it was the little dipper

[@Handles-R-Lame]

Me as well! I always thought it was the little dipper as a child.

[@inderjotsingh1520]

Same here but I called it blue digger

[@Nonosquare2000]

I never saw it without a telescope. I have only seen Orion nebula, some 25 or so stars, 4 objects from solar system........ Sad life.

[@aaron_r.574]

Beautiful!! One of your best shots yet. You process your images with a perfect balance of sharpness and softness!

[@cosmicrider5898]

This is definitely the best so far;p

[@loco3514]

How does this look through his telescope? Like the picture? Yes, i’m a noob.

[@jujubean7664]

@@loco3514 No. The Pleiades looks nice through a telescope, but it won't look nearly as good as the image. This is true will all astrophotography you see. This is because the camera is much more sensitive than our eyes, and it can do long exposures of multiple minutes. To get images like these you stack a few hours worth of individual images on top of each other. This allows the camera to see extremely faint things like the nebulosity in this image. Hope this helps!

[@loco3514]

Thanks Trevor for the pleasant educational video.

Hi Trevor - I'm usually not one to comment on your U-tubes because you do such a great job; you don't really need any constructive criticism... but this time I'm breaking with my usual silence... ...LOVED the quick shot of the Downy WP... 'Wish you would include just a few more of your birding shots in your U-tubes... It's all about the photography equipment, don't ya know!! Also, YES I remember the first time you brought out the gold accent WO132. This new version looks like a BEAST!! You've got to be approaching the weight limits of your EQ6 with 3 counter weights in place. You've taught me so much over the last several years. I finally broke-down and purchased a ES102 refractor; and, I got my first decent shot of Andromeda Galaxy a few nights ago. ...been working on it for 4 years, and finally understand the important role the equipment plays. Any way... Love your efforts and Love your U-tubes. Keep up the good work!

[@sapper10m]

I just got into astrophotography about a month ago so I'm pretty new to it, but your videos are amazing inspiration. I also shot the Pleiades Friday night through my skywatcher evostar 72 and it's so gratifying to get a good result after post processing! Keep up the good work!

[@TheHoaxHotel]

Tried some subs on Pleiades for the first time last night but got sniped by clouds... What a cool target.

[@GalaxyArtMedia]

Clouds and dew are a pain in this period. I got to deal with them since october.

[@geoffnash3098]

My favorite group is stars very beautiful along with the Orion nebula

[@oldgittarist]

Inspirational video Trevor with a superb result on the Pleiades!!

[@PoconoJoe]

Very awesome! I watched it rise the past few days while camping, good times!

Awesome, very pleased that you get lots of clear skies. Greetings from cloudy Iceland.

[@Chris-Theodore]

Yay! Another video. I saw the M45 last night through my Orion Star blast at my home in California!

[@justincammidge]

Another amazing video Trevor, that last speech on the outro was very inspiring!

[@mitchellmysliwiecphotography]

Thank you for sharing your excitement for the night sky... I recently picked up a star tracker and have made a couple images. The last one was the Pleiades. Wouldnt have even tried without people like you lighting the way

[@andypearce1122]

What I remember is the always overexcited Trevor unboxing videos at the old backyard in the garage, whenever anyone sent you anything to try out back then, as always a pleasure watching someone who enthuses our hobby, cheers Trev.

[@ericvanhorn7986]

Thanks for sharing. I'm pretty new to all this and decided to point my camera at Pleiades this past weekend. Very pleased with the results for not even knowing what is was prior.

[@ChrisSmith-lk2vq]

Ooohhhh!!!!! I can't wait for my mount to arrive!! Will be my next! Keep up your great work Trevor! Clear skies to you!!

[@majestikkal8603]

Not gonna lie, you guys make this look like art that the world needs to see.

[@geoffnash3098]

Awesome picture Trevor like the picture a lot

[@muzairafzal1529]

[@prasejonson]

Just... WOW... I am watching your videos when I want to calm myself.. It's so relaxing and your work is close to perfect

[@spiros3006]

Great video once again showing the world the beauty of the night sky... well done!

[@hansowerydberg]

I'm pretty new to this hobby but I stumbled across this cluster when I was surfing the starry sky with my telescope about a month ago. An absolutely incredible experience! Thanks for a very nice video! =)

[@ftabata]

it is unbelievable how beautiful is the night sky. these days I was looking to pleiades and took a picture with a dslr camera. doesn't matter the result. what is nice is when we know that there is more than what we can see. also it is very relaxing.

[@avt_astro206]

Beautiful Capture Of Pleaides Trev. I love Looking at Pleaides with My Binoculars. Thats Definately One Of My Favorite Target's I have Started With In deep Sky Object's !! : D

[@manishari6976]

I still remember that day when you got the Gold version of the William optics Refractor Telescope. I am an old G subscriber

[@rcraigmacrae]

Oh wow. I’ve got to get out there tomorrow night. Only clear night of the week!!!! Fantastic Image. Thanks Trevor, now go play some Trivial Pursuit.

[@williamwesley5078]

Pimpin out the DSLR! It kinda sux how it's been warm, a few weeks ago it was cold and I loved how I didnt have no hot pixels, it really makes a HUGE difference when that sensor is nice and cool...u know I only live about 5hrs from where u live, we pretty much get the same weather as u do...and I have to tell u that my wife's name is Ashley too, I learn alot from your experience with astrophotography...Clear Skies!!!!!!!

[@stephenmacmahon4837]

Thank you Trevor for a great presentation. It was great that you introduced your wife to the shoot and also your “best mate”! It just rounded the presentation so well. I really enjoy your passion!

[@michaellordi9578]

One of the nicest images of the Pleiades that I've seen! Very nice video as well, I'm enjoying following you.

[@51rwyatt]

Beautiful. I love reflection nebulas and dusty pics.

[@GalaxyArtMedia]

Nice video. I miss photographing the Pleiades. I like the remote control setup in the garadge.

[@adonaimorales3560]

I live vicariously through your gear. I’m new to this but you video about the apertura 8” dob convinced me to buy my first scope. When you got emotional talking about looking through it, I had that feeling when I looked at the moon through my 8” dob. I love this channel. I hope one day I can take produce some stuff half as good as these. Cheers.

[@rsramanujam]

I saw the Hyades and Pleiades for the first time through my 15x70 binoculars the day before and like you said, they blew my mind. Etched in my memory forever.

[@adamgrey411]

I've been in love with the pleiades ever since I found it last year and I observe it all the time :)

[@VxR_093]

Every minute you share is another minute of amazement and aw

[@andelkoloncar4791]

Everything i saw here so far was no less than PERFECT!!! Video editing, quality of final photos, overall knowledge of subject and so on! And so is this PLEIADES photo, i am really stunned! Almost no difference from world best astro photos made with far bigger instruments. CONGRATULATIONS!!!

[@tomgriffinphotographyakiwi6150]

I set up my scope and camera. Come in to watch KZbin and you appear on my list, and photographing the Pleiades, my target for tonight. What a great coincidence. Loved the vid.💙

[@THEDOUG78VA]

Very awesome shot! Here recently, this has been my next target I've been eyeing to capture. Last night I looked up at it a few times, through a partly cloudy sky...so I didn't end up doing any imaging, but I did manage to see a Taurids meteor!

[@bullymaguire8665]

I’m looking at it right now. Crazy to think that I can see it with the naked eye. So beautiful

[@Teeb2023]

Love that 132 Trevor... it's a beast, and looks MUCH better in its toned-down colour scheme. I had the 110 a few years back, and I hated that it could only be bought in that chintzy gold trim. Lovely scope, otherwise.

[@alanhat26]

Absolutely phenomenal work , no thank you for sharing

[@themegachase99]

This is my favorite object to look at in the night sky with the naked eye. Looking straight into the cluster with my eyes yields little to no results. I find most satisfaction when observing through my peripheral vision. In my eyes it seems to show the true scope and massiveness of the star cluster, viewing adjacent to the cluster yields true beauty in my eyes. It’s easy to see how our ancestors and their ancestors were fascinated by this cluster. Even in our now light polluted skies. Truly magnificent beauty to behold.

[@rickpimentel5643]

WOW!!!!!!! Youre one of the few that make me want to get into astrophotography! Thank u!!!!!

[@HeavenlyBackyardAstronomy]

I totally agree with you about getting lost in the nighttime sky. Best hobby ever!

[@cruikshank]

Thank you Trevor for posting this. I just picked up a Nikkor 300mm F4.5. Once the clouds break I plan on testing it on the Pleiades and the Orion Nebula. It’s the Non internal focusing lens so I hope I got a winner. Great to see your wife & Rudy too.

[@jezrougan]

Hi Trevor, as always you seem to exceed my expectations when I see your final image... I managed to capture the Orion nebula for the first time this season while contending with a 70% lit moon with a un modified dslr apsc canon with no filters, mounted to a expensive paper weight (meade LS"6) I managed X10 15sec exposures @ iso 800... then watched your video on deep sky stacker tutorial, and managed to get 6 stacked images into LRC to do the final edit, as I can't get my head around photoshop yet... I was quite chuffed with the final results for only my second attempt at shooting a deep space nebula with an unmodified camera... Keep up the great work as you inspire not only me but 100s other new astro imagers...
