    Northern Lights

    Having too much fun with the Color-4KT footage looking for auroras now that I know how to process the video and what to look for in captured footage. I've found auroras on more nights near the main event like this on May 13, 2024. That wasn't super surprising. That inspired me to search in...

    Northern Lights

    Finished the full length time lapse for this morning's showing. I did NOT adjust color saturation or hue. Only gamma adjusted the exposure for better contrast.

    Northern Lights

    Surprised to see activity this morning (Thursday May 16, 2024) After spotting it on camera, I looked outside. Could BARELY see anything with my eyes. The Color 4KT sees so much more than human vision.

    More to follow, but this is in opposite direction (west). It's basically right on top of us.

    Early time lapse. Should get better capture as sky darkens.

    Northern Lights

    Color 4KT's are picking up the northern lights overhead. I can barely see with naked eye, but on cameras it is pretty wild. Will be a great time lapse.

    Scene color/saturation changes with motion?

    I would actually more expect this is a side effect of white balance being shifted. Notice how the color of white differs between the two scenes. When white point shifts, the scene colors can shift dramatically in hue and saturation. The amount and direction of shift depends on both the original...

    M31 with Satellites

    Clear night allowed another M31 capture on the EmpireTech PTZ5A4M-25X. A couple satellites drift across the field. M110 is the smudge above the main galaxy

    You didn't help with the nest, but you ARE going to help with this.

    When I first moved here, the local news was going on about a drought. I looked around at the ferns and wondered “What drought?”
