@jasonpatterson8091 10 месяцев назад

The primary subject of the image is fantastic, but I'm also amazed and impressed at the level of clear background detail you managed to capture. The sheer number of tiny, but distinct and detailed background galaxies - it's stunning. Congratulations!

Congrats to all the winners! Awesome presentation Dylan, thanks for putting in the time and effort mate!

@Wheeljack678 10 месяцев назад

You disclosed fairly often that this would be very subjective, and in that sense; none of the ones you picked are "wrong" - even if some people will unquestionably disagree with you. I really liked the ones you picked out. I think you emphasized creativity as well as the aesthetics and technical. Good job with this Dylan. Well done.

Some really cool stuff in here that those of us in the NH never get to see. Thanks for sharing the pics and judging process! What do you think about having subscribers send you their pics and doing critique/commentary vids on a handful of those now and then? Might be a cool way to see what others are doing and give some ideas about how to improve.

Thanks Dylan. Your commentary opened my eyes the aesthetics of astrophotography. Much appreciated.

@mgmcd1 10 месяцев назад

You know, I make fun and stick to my visual astronomy, and a big part of the reason is all the amazing and dedicated astrophotographers out there, like yourself and everyone in this group. I seriously doubt my ability to create this level of work, so leave it to the truly creative scientists, and am happy to just enjoy the show. Well done all.

@OlliesSpace 10 месяцев назад

I thought this was really well explained and enjoyed how it wasn't just about the technical side. I loved that Sunflower image with the out of focus Milky Way.

@aw7425 10 месяцев назад

Thank you Dr. Dylan. Super as usual

@philleng480 10 месяцев назад

Samy 135mm, such a good lens featured again and again. Defo given me some ideas for shots with mine - especially next time I am in the southern hemisphere (now that I have 'done' the LMC). Thanks Dylan p.s the comet shot was a doozy.

@davidletz9123 10 месяцев назад

@blobrana8515 10 месяцев назад

Super images. I can see these becoming screen savers and iconic calendar photos for 2024.

@humbugnh 10 месяцев назад

Personally, I use a 3d6 when judging astrophotos, to generate a nice bell curve ratio of average to outstanding entrants. Joking aside, lovely to see the winners and what goes into composing a good image.

@jasonpatterson8091 10 месяцев назад

That must have been a difficult job. Congratulations on being selected to judge, and the video you produced to showcase the winners was excellent.

@deep_space_dave 10 месяцев назад

Excellent Job Dylan! Obvious why you were chosen to judge this images. Sometimes people forget about the emotional aspect of photography and focus on the technical. I am glad you have an artistic eye and judged these candidates in a more heartfelt way. Congrats to all the photographers not just the winners as this takes skill and passion to truly produce a work of art!

16:17 we all gonna die, but the thing that we have to do isn't all we want to do, the thing we need to do is being a muslim to go to paradise forever after death and if weren't a muslim you will go to hell forever after death, and there is to much things that prove that the islam is right like the things that happen before the end of the world and most of them happend, and that there are a things that was more than 1400 years ago telled in quran and the scientists had descovered now like the Splitting of the moon, and life after death is true too. I don't want to see you in hell

Is it too late to leave your children at a hospital or fire house? Children ruin everything. Dogs are so much better. Someday you might be able to enjoy a vacation again.

Dylan, I absolutely love your videos and your style of commentary, the humour and the high quality of your production. You're a seriously funny dude and your passion for Astrophotography has led me and thousands of others to learn, engage or simply appreciate your crazy tomfoolery! This was a beautiful wee journey and the images and the timelapses where absolutely stunning. Thanks for sharing this with us all. Clear skies Edit: I've just subbed to KaizanBlu - that tune at the end of the video, Deep, is truly beautiful. Thanks for introducing me that amazing musician.
