A panorama of a modest display of noctilucent clouds over McGregor Lake reservoir and campsite in southern Alberta on June 29, 2019. This is looking north about midnight on a Saturday night of the Canada Day long weekend. The display faded after this. The stars of Perseus are at right. This is cropped from a 6-segment panorama with the 50mm Sigma lens at f/2.8 and Sony a7III at ISO 400 for 8 seconds each. Stitched with Adobe Camera Raw.
The eroding formations of Dinosaur Provincial Park, Alberta, lit by the rising gibbous Moon, off camera at left, on April 21/22, 2019. This is looking west, with the stars of the winter sky setting. Procyon is at right. Aphard in Hydra is above the hill. This is a stack of 8 exposures, mean combined to smooth noise, for the ground, and a single exposure for the sky, all with the 24mm Sigma Art lens at f/5.6 and Nikon D750 at ISO 6400, each for 25 seconds. The images were from the end of a sequence shot for a time-lapse using the TimeLapse+ View bramping intervaolometer. Luminar Flex effects Soft Glow added to the sky and Autumn Colors added to the ground.
The eroding formations of Dinosaur Provincial Park, Alberta, lit by the rising gibbous Moon, off camera at right, on April 21/22, 2019. This is looking north, with the stars of the northern sky pivoting around Polaris. This is a stack of 8 exposures, mean combined to smooth noise, for the ground, and 250 exposures for the sky, blended with Lighten mode to create the stails. However, I used the Advanced Stacker Plus actions in Photoshop to do the stacking, creating the tapering effect in the process. All exposures with the 15mm Laowa lens at f/2.8 and Sony a7III at ISO 3200, each for 30 seconds. Luminar Flex effects Soft Glow added to the sky and Autumn Colors added to the ground.
