Milky Way Season | Find The MILKY WAY All-Year-Round

[@Sol-cf9ko]

What a legend you were Alyn, man you changed countless lives and minds for the better. Clear skies.

[@djchips]

SO jealous of the southern hemisphere, they get to see almost the entire milky way throughout the year!

[@johansmitphotography]

Oh yes. And we have a lot of nice objects. 😂

[@alvinmorris5404]

@@johansmitphotography yes and then you have all the celestial bodies on the beaches during the day 😉 you can't miss them they have a special glow !😍😆

[@santiagotradu]

Now I have to learn how to properly polar align down here 😝

[@CaroToro28]

One of the things I truly miss from Colombia 🇨🇴 ... Is to be able to experience Luna moving through its cycles ✨🌚🌝✨

[@jcarroll276]

also the small and large Magellanic cloud. We have many good DSOs tho which is nice. Also a much easier star to polar align with 🤣

[@simonmcgrath4112]

I'm annoyed!!! Why the hell hasn't this video had hundreds of thousands of views as it's so informative and spellbinding. I've been to Capetown at xmas and to see the milky way and the mag clouds was truly a sight to behold!!! Fantastic video really top class with all the detail u put in and the filters on ur telescope u can tell ur an absolute lover of photo astronomy and we thank u for it.

[@robertsouzza5529]

There are no more excuses for not photographing the milky way, beautiful photos, your astrophotography edition is simply untouchable👍🏆

[@simonmcgrath4112]

How does anyone put a thumbs down to this. Don't they understand how beautiful and informative this video was/is. It takes ur breath away and lets us humans no that we are part of this picture of this galaxy, we are born of the stars we are star dust baby!!

[@boarini2003]

What a fantastically informative and beautiful video. Man, I a jealous of those of you south of the equator!

[@simonharding5696]

Great video, Alyn, and perfectly summarised. I'm now going to watch it again, only this time with a notebook!! Brilliant.

[@nightscapeimages.richard]

What a fabulous video Alyn, really well explained my friend. I love how you include both the Northern and Southern Hemisphere views. I'll be recommending this video for a lot of people for sure.

[@AlynWallace]

Thanks Richard! Hope you're well

[@nightscapeimages.richard]

@@AlynWallace All good mate

[@echoauxgen]

Thank You so much for the info!!! Greatest Info for hunting the universe in all its glow!! I captured the winter rainbow after watching one of your shows. For those in America the east coast with dark skies over the ocean (lighthouses a plenty). And if in the deep south or SC, GA or Florida's east coast and any almost dark sky place in the south in February 11,2021 at 5 am it is high enough to be above the dirty atmosphere for the start of MW arch. There is even a gathering in the Florida Keys for astrophotography every year. But even up in Maine if looking over the ocean it is great.

[@tayanmoroz1885]

YESSSS I LITERALLY HAVE BEEN WAITING SO LONG FOR A NEW VIDEO. Last night I was thinking when you were going to post. You are literally amazing and the best:)) Thank you!!!!!!

This video is just beautiful. So informative, so well constructed and awesome. Rest In Peace Alyn ❤️

his voice is so soothing idk why

[@pupperemeritus9189]

Damn that didn't feel like 22 minutes. It felt like 5 minutes. Well done alyn

This video and those master classes are like a bible to the astrophotographers ☺️. Love your work Alyn. ❤️

[@avt_astro206]

Amazing Video Alyn...Will Have To Try Finding it from My Light Polluted Backyard..Clear Skies ✨🌌🔭

[@baquezphotography1885]

Great video Alyn. Excellent information about the Milky Way. A big greeting

[@scotty4418]

Nice to see you back Alyn, a very comprehensive overview and as always great images too

[@callumvernon7053]

Felt like I was sat in a really interesting Science lesson at school back in the day. Excellent watch! Thanks

[@alandyer910]

Excellent! Glad to see someone recognizing that there’s more to the Milky Way than just the core, and that great Milky Way photos are possible most of the year. It’s only on spring evenings (true of either hemisphere) that we look straight up at the galactic poles and the Milky Way lies along the horizon. But even that can be an interesting photo from a dark site. Cheers and clear skies!

[@Lagomorphis]

I have just sat through this wide eyed and absolutely amazed at this presentation. Thanks Alyn it was fascinating.

[@jeffchapman605]

Thank You for the inspiration! I just got a tracker and I'm glad to see I don't have to wait until March to use it.

[@catherineallen8779]

Wow, this is amazing. You are very generous with your information.

[@Bushy-73]

Very informative info. Cannot wait to try my Google pixel 6 astrophotography mode but in the UK may have to wait a lifetime for clear skies. I use Star walk 2 for charts and info

[@5sidedfistagon]

Great video Alyn, I dont think the "off season" part of the Milky Way is appreciated enough. Its Milky Way season all year round. One pretty cool think I'd like to mention is that the Milky Way position will eventually change (albeit a VERY long time) much like a winter and summer solstice, the Southern Hemisphere is considered to have the better view of the Milky Way but this will change when our position relative to the center of the galaxy changes. When we are on the exact opposite side of the galaxy to where we are now, the position of the Milky Way will be reversed and the North will then have the better views! Something pretty cool I learnt about earlier this year.

[@DiegoTerzano]

Great explanation and beautiful use of imagery. Fantastic Video!!!! Thanks

[@timscanlanphotography]

Hi Alyn. A brilliantly illustrated and presented video - what a comeback !! So much info here I'll have to watch it again and again. Welcome back and thank you for sharing.

[@chrismichaeluk]

THE best explanation of the Milky Way I've seen. Struggled to get my head around it until now! Thank you

[@robertYTB78g]

Great illustrations here, thank you for posting. After this video I just made the connection between that grainy edge on disk of the Sombrero Galaxy image on my wall and the grainy pictures I have taken of the Milky Way.

[@tooter5250]

Wow, just watched your presentation, which is nothing short of brilliant, and I don't use that term often. Beautifully done, with the use of pictures and graphs. I have never been in the southern hemisphere, and that portion of the presentation was a comination of stunning and disorienting. I appreciate your emphasis on the Milky Way not being a "seasonal" phenomenon. In the northern latitude (35 to 45 degrees latitude), the Milky Way is quite visible cutting through the winter skies. Just a terrific tutorial, one of the very best I have ever seen on KZbin for anyi topic. I've been a star watcher since the early 1960s, and only starting to take pictures using a mirrorless camera system (though I took a pretty good 30 minute +tracked picture of Haley's comet using film and a Celestron telescope back in March of 1986 which was published by the Taos News). Thank you so much, and I will be subscribing to your channel.

[@martrich1098]

Great video, beautifully described and set out - thanks for blowing that myth out of the water and giving us some great composition ideas. Lovely photos - Wales is looking terrific in your hands.

[@SweetLouPhotography]

Holy crap, it's so dense with great info. Thank you for making this.

[@astroazores]

Great video! Really great pics and a good WM explanation! Nice work!

[@Seegurke.]

Your knowledge and passion for the night sky and astrophotography is impressive Alyn. You really would have deserved to be born in the southern hemnisphere, not fair ! :) Thanks for sharing this with us, much appreciated! Watching your videos is a little bit like being in a planetarium. ^^

[@barlow2976]

Thanks, really easy to understand with your time-lapse shots. For the first time I totally understand how the night sky moves, before this I couldn't picture it in my head, now I can. Subscribed on the strength of that alone.

[@soldier1706]

RIP Alyn truly a gem

[@extreme_5137]

The amount of research that want into this is crazy! Great job, perfectly built video!

[@kapurar]

Thank you! One the best and most detailed accounts I have seen for locating the Milky Way.

thanks so much Alyn. this may be my favorite. so full of information and beautiful to hear and see. i got my calendar in the post today:) 😊 take care✨

[@geofftrevarthen5991]

Excellent video Alyn, you explained all the information so well. Very enlightening! You've also corrected my (mis)-understanding about only being able to photograph the MW through the summer months. Now I just need some clear skies. Thanks very much!

[@abhrajyotinandi8546]

That was quite a eyeopening explanation...loved it

[@cmichaelhaugh8517]

Thank you for this. It’s finally beginning to make some sense.

[@calebwhite681]

16:10 imagine what that supernova used to look like! it must've been close. the Dumbbell and Helix nebula are remnants of supernovas but are way smaller in the sky. imagine them but massive in the night sky! amazing

[@maxtakesphotos]

Heading out early tomorrow morning for my first milky way core shot of the year. Always have a watch through some of your vids before for inspiration. Love your work!

Very useful information that reminds me to try to catch the difference parts of the milky-way, thanks Alyn!

Miss you dude ❤

[@KVF6363]

That's me, Southern Hemisphere, Southern Cross & NZ

[@aneira9004]

I discovered your channel during the March lockdown in NZ and was inspired. I dug out my old camera to give myself something creative to do instead of be an anxious wreak! I consider myself a beginner and I sometimes feel my images aren't as sharp as they could be, although it might be because I just have a canon 450d! Anywhoo~ thanks for making lockdown and beyond a bit better, and I'll keep practicing...I've taken so many pictures of the southern cross, I don't have to leave my garden and it's an easy target :D

[@nikhilpatil-ln7ld]

Amazing presentation, thanks a lott 🙂

[@jishnu13]

Alyn, this month was the first time i was able to step out and travel to a dark sky region on the 20th to capture a Leonids Meteor shower (which I learnt by watching and following you). I must say it felt great and also it did freeze my balls off! I have been following you from March (roughly) when the lockdown started, back then I was stuck in London. Now back home safe and sound in India. You have been an inspiration to me and I am extremely grateful to you and your channel. Well done on this much needed video.

[@scrumpyhead2000]

That was great Alyn. Stay safe bud, hopefully catch up in 2021.

Incredible amount of info here Alyn, thanks for this! Think I'm beginning to enjoy the 'non-core season' more than the typical milky way time of late, in part from your videos like this, really appreciate it.

Fantastic video Alyn, I found it was very informative. Unfortunately I live in Cheshire where there is horrendous light pollution, so will need to travel to Snowdonia or the Lake district to find decent dark skies. Keep up the good work and thanks again for the great video. 📷🌃🔭

[@neilcamden1365]

Awesome stuff, Alyn. The MW is so much more than the core. Just wish I had access to some darker skies to be able to see it at it's best... Hopefully post-lockdown I'll get into the depths of Wales..

[@sandeepsinghchawla916]

I'm 18 and in 2020, I started taking great interest in astrophotography! I studied about the milkyway and made pictures of it in November. Now that I'm familiar with all this knowledge, I can't wait to dive into night sky but I can't touch my camera for the next 5-6 years due to studies! That feeling is crap! I know I have a lot of time to do that stuff but I believe that future is uncertain, I may just die tomorrow......
