Tracked Milky Way Galaxy Lake Reflection Composite Tutorial

Looks like I’m the first want to come in today. Awesome.

What if you shoot the foreground image during night with a long exposure and blend that image with the tracked sky shot?
That way you get the smooth water surface and the reflection too :)

I need MW season to come back.

Love this Mike ! Thank you so much for sharing. 👍

you now you can track the MW in the reflection if the water is still right?

Excellent tutorial! Thank you for doing these videos... :):)

when i see a video of mike i press the like . simple.

Hi Mike,
I have found it is really hard to blend blue hour lake or seascape with Milky way.
Thus, most of the time I ended up using the real night foreground in stead of blue hour.
Your video is very helpful in this scenario.
Thanks a lot.

Super! I have not been using sky replacement. Why work harder!!! And I love the vertical flip on the sky to create the reflection. So many good tips. Thank you.

Thanks for the tutorial Mike. Inspiring stuff!

Thanks so much for this video. Quick question. You mentioning the video that you “isolated” the meteor from one of the frames from the sequence. If you can kindly let me know how you cut out out the meteor from a frame—save it in your desktop—and then paste it in your Ps document and how you enhance the meteor in color etc that would be super helpful. Thank you.
