Stacking photos for a better Milky Way photo.
I am always looking for ways to improve the way my Milky Way photo look and I recently discovered something pretty cool. Its a program called Sequator and it allows you to take multiple images and stack them to create a better image with less noise. In this particular photo I used sixteen shots from a time-lapse I took a while back. I think the software did a pretty amazing job and really brought out more detail and color in the shot. Its not perfect though as it did take out part of a telephone pole and the wires in this shot.
This is an edit I shared in the past and I think its really easy to tell what a difference stacking shots makes. I am going to look through other time-lapse shots I have done in the past and see if I can stack the shots to make an even more impressive image. Which edit do you like most?
16 Stacked Shots
Canon EOD 6D
25 Second exposure
3200 iso
14mm Rokinon
Your Milky Way photos always impress me. Between these two photos, I especially like the first one. The lights are gorgeous. Well done! ;)
Thank you @tangmo I am really having fun with this software to try and improve some of my old shots.
You're welcome! ;)
Beautiful. Love how the stacking made the blues pop brighter near the center!
Your juxtaposition of blue against orange is also not a bad idea from an image-creation standpoint, :P.
I agree, the blues look a lot better in the stacked shot. I tend to favor blue when editing my shots.
Thank you @qurator I appreciate the support
Our pleasure :)
