What an incredible image, thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[@aw7425]

Your pics keep getting better, thanks for sharing and being an inspiration, clear skies

Amazing photo! I am new to astrophotography, so you have any advice for beginners? Thank you for sharing.

[@WVAA304]

Thank you! 😊 My advice would be to learn the constellations and where they are located.. learn where Andromeda is located, along with some of your favorite objects.. start widefield with astrophotography, NOT a huge scope, but some small refractor. Many of these targets can be captured using a very modest widefield telescope. If your wanting something for visual use, go with an 8 in dobsonian scope, as it will be very easy to learn on and give you incredible sharp views...

This is an awesome image, i love it!

Thank you for this video! I am an amateur in macro photography but I would like to learn to expand my knowledge by trying astrophotography, because I find it so beautiful 🤩I have a Canon eos 2000D, do you think the lens is compatible with my camera? Or depending on the type of photos you need a more efficient box if I had just bought the Samyang 14mm f2.8?

Great video, here in England, we might hear a hedgehog at night, not a coyote 😲, again great work, loved the final picture 👏👏

[@WVAA304]

Lol, i would love to hear a hedgehog, lol

[@garyrear]

What a great shot! Fantastic. One of those dogs sounded pretty big 😳

[@WVAA304]

Thanks brother! 😊

[@tadetad208]

Very nice video, i bougt an used 6DII and im not sur what for lens to buy. The same as you or an tamron 15-30 2.8

[@WVAA304]

I haven't had a chance to try the tamron, but I love the 14mm.. it's always been a favorite lens of mine and for the price, it's hard to beat

[@chrisclark6154]

Smashing video. Great to see someone else in WVa taking advantage of the dark skies here. I'm going to have to try some landscape stuff. Too focused on DSOs right now.

[@AstroSeabee]

I need to come for a visit.

[@astrophotonics9470]

One of my fav lenses, i use the Samyang's 85mm, 135mm as well and the bonus here is that Extra Dispersion glass is use in all of them. Nice work John.

[@WVAA304]

Thanks! I really put a lot of work into this one, I'm quite happy with the results! I Also have the 135 myself.. been eye balling the 20mm! 😆

Thanks for this video Jonathan! Really enjoyed it (As always). Living under Bortle 9 skies I'm quite jealous of your awesome sky. I had the same camera lens that I used for a trip to Chile, and it's a great piece of equipment. Really liked the way you told the story in this video. Not only did you get a great end-result, but the quality of your video production just gets higher and higher. Good work. Clear skies!

[@WVAA304]

Hey Jakob, thanks for appreciating and noticing my efforts brother! I wish you could see the skies here at milky way season... truly incredible man! I have a lot of projects planned for this year, hopefully my consistency will steadily increase to.... Well, that's the plan anyway, 😆

[@UNLKYHNTR]

Great video, but the bortle scale goes from 1-9.

[@WVAA304]

Yeah, 😬 oops
