You have a GIFT! This video was such a great help to me after learning of Photo Pill for the first time and preparing to become an astro photographer. I'm sure I will watch each video several times. The speed of talking is perfect for me unlike some videos where the speaker talks way too fast. And you are obviously very knowledgeable about the app. I am glad to subscribe to Outdoor Photography. I am not going to search for another tutorial as it couldn't be any better. Thanks so much for all the time you must have invested in creating this course. See you soon! Ted in Sebastian, Fl.

As a former science teacher I thought your use of the exercise ball was a great model to help visualize the information in PhotoPills. Well done and thanks for this series. Extremely helpful...

Oh good! I hoped it would be a helpful visual, but you never know how things like that may go. ;)

Best Video for Milkyway planning, cleared my all doubts. Hats of for the Explanation. Photopills app is best for landscape and Milkyway photography, but it is so overwhelming. This video will be really very helpful for the many people like me

Oh my goodness! I've been struggling with understanding exactly what I was looking at in PhotoPills with the Milky Way info. Your exercise ball and tin foil example was pure genius. What a great visual! I get it now and what a Eureka moment! Thank you so much. Your videos are extremely helpful.

Brenda, what a clever application of an instrument of torture (BOSU ball) as an instrument of edification! Also, synchronization of the aluminum foil Milky Way with the PhotoPills display is pure genius. Bravo!

Thank you Brenda. You have the best videos on PhotoPills. I have been watching your videos for a while now and as soon as I started watching your PhotoPills Fridays I hit the subscribe button.

Absolutely the clearest explanation on the use of Photopills for Milky Way photo planning. Thank You so much. Headed to your next video. It's Oct 6, 2021 (Arizona) looks like I still have a few days of opportunity left. Wish me luck

Another great video explaining a great tool. I'm suppose to do a Milky Way shoot tonight in Naples, Florida and hoping the clouds won't stop us.

you have made understanding Photo Pills very easy glad I have found this video and your other ones too your videos are very informative and easy to understand do have one question do you shoot Milky Way photos with your lens hood on ?

@joetagg1961 2 жыл бұрын

These tutorials are indispensable. I keep going back to them when thinking about doing a Milky way shot. Thank you, Brenda !!

@claudiadavids1004 Жыл бұрын

I started watching your tutorial videos today... I am trying to find how to activate the "live picture mode"(not sure how it is called) I saw a photographer use the app and while he was moving his phone in real time there was an overlay that showed the position of the Milkyway.... Hope you can give me a pointer with this information.

If the Milky Way starts at around 13.1° and ends at 12 and a half degrees. Why is the galactic core at 17° and the total Milky Way at 170°? I guess my biggest part of this question is if the galactic core is 17° at the time that you're showing us and you go to the galactic core when you scroll over one page and then it says that the exact same time it's 17°. How can it be at two different places at the same time?
