Milkyway Panoramas, Australia 

I love that interpretation!

Thanks carl, I appreciate that mate 👍

Haha do it man

Thanks mate, I appreciate it

Cheers geoff! 🍻

Slowly getting use to it! Hahah a beer or...10 🍺 🤣

@@johnrutterphotography a beer or...? I should have said. Upcoming holiday, drinking, boating, 4 wheeling by day. Astrophotography by night , hope I have my wits about me for astro?

Thanks Richard, 👍 they are very overdone...but I couldn't drive past this without grabbing an image.

Thanks Roland 👍 I appreciate it mate

Thanks Cheryl 👍 they are everywhere in Western NSW.

Cheers Eric 🍻 appreciate the support.

Cheers mate 👍 it's definitely a big rig all put together

Thanks mate, I'm still young enough to contort myself to see in the scope but I will eventually get the right angle scope.

Thanks mate, it's a bit of a handful but I agree it's a cool thing to look at

Thanks Alan 👍 appreciate it mate

Thanks Ian 👍

Cheers mate 👍

Thanks 👍 I appreciate the support 🙏

Thankyou. I appreciate it 🙏

Thanks mate. I appreciate it

I wish! Missed it by a couple of days

Thanks man 👍

I'm still messing around with the settings, I dunno what's best at this stage. Glad to hear I'm somewhat in the ballpark

Cheers buddy 👍

Thanks for the support 🙏

Cheers man, 🍻 only got this far thanks to you.

@@johnrutterphotography ❤

Thanks for the support

Thanks Andrew 👍 all that info is in my next video so stay tuned to see how I deal with all that.

Cheers mate 👍

Thanks mate 👍 I only do timelapses for my videos,which im not good at,, my passion is just imaging

Thanks Tom 👍 just like everyone, I try to keep progressing and improving.

Thanks Chris, the mount just runs on AA batteries, and I power the cameras and dew heaters with power banks

Not sure what you mean mate?

@@johnrutterphotography I 'm sorry for my english If you can publish a video explaining how you reveal the photos of the two cameras in a single panorama,

Thanks for the feedback mate, been trying to up the quality of the videos.

Thanks mate, sounds great. Look forward to seeing what you get.

Cheers Brendan, very interesting what's the theory behind that?

@@johnrutterphotography focus breathing changes the size of the images slightly if you use different apertures, but I forgot you're using the clip in filter which might also affect things.

@@BLarsenPhoto i also use 2 different cameras so the pixel scale is different, i have to register images together anyway so i end up with 2 identical frames, focus breathing isnt an issue nor the shape of the stars as i only intergrate starless Ha,

Thanks mate, no clouds, either dust or the thick atmosphere and airglow making it hard to see details

Cheers Tristan 🍻, I did re level the mount for this image just for balance, but you don't have to as long as when your shooting your horizon row it's level. So if I start at the top row and it's gona take 2 hours to get all the frames (earth rotates at 15 degrees per hr) I'd lay the mount over 30 degrees, the mound then tracks back to level when I hit my horizon row and the blend is all good, If you start at the bottom and work up it's simple, just setup level at the start and let it run.

@@johnrutterphotography ok perfect mate thanks for the info. Really appreciate it. Cheers,

I have to register each matching frame in software so I end up with the same pixel scale first. If you had a Ha modified camera NOT full spectrum you wouldn't need ha+ filter you could just but a 12nm filter for the narrowband and do exactly what you want with one camera

@@johnrutterphotography cool, thanks!

Hey mate, I started the foreground in the centre so I could get the windmill in the centre of a single frame and not on a join to ensure a perfect stitch especially with such a wide apature (sharpest in the middle) I could have worked it out and started to one side I guess, but the order doesn't matter. As far as the sky goes the order you choose depends on what you want to prioritise in your image, I wanted the core as high over the horizon, so I start at the top to give the core time to get up as I work across and down, because the height above the horizon is determined by the frame that includes the horizon in it. It locks the sky to the foreground. Later in the season when the core is low I shoot bottom row first to lock it in and work up from there In saying all that the wider the lens you use the less this matters as you get through all images before any significant movement happens.

@John Rutter photography thanks for detailed reply John. Clear skies. .

Thanks for the feedback.

It is controlled through the synscan app, you will need to turn on tracking in the app

@@johnrutterphotography I use the app (syncscan pro) but I cannot see the Track command. What is the pathway of the Track command? Utilities? Very poor instruction came with the device and nothing about the app.

@@johnrutterphotography Oh, I can see "Tracking" now inside Utilities. Thanks.

@@johnrutterphotography Hi John, just turned on. There are 3 options inside Tracking, No Tracking, sidereal, and Lunar. For Milky Way, do I need to Tick on Sidereal? It is in Equatorial Mode. Also, in Setting>Guiding Rae RA/AZ and Dec/ALT = Sideral? The default was 0.5x Sidereal.

@@HossainSiddiqui just siderial at normal speed not .5
