I find your tutorials the best not only for astro work but, Photoshop in general. The knowledge you drop is so well explained. Thank you Ian, hope your life is going well.

Wow. That is complicated but the benefits are pretty obvious. Now I know how to do it right. Thanks for such a great, detailed video. Now I need to watch the rest of yours...
-
Thanks for explaining this is a very clear, step-by-step procedure. It is quite a bit of work - however, totally worth it to end up with a great final exposure.
-
Will be trying this next week. Thank you for such a great tutorial! Your images are so inspiring!
-
Absolutely brilliant tutorial. First person on YouTube to go this in-depth. I live on Maui, which gives me access to Haleakala. I can't wait to give this a shot.
-
A great job as always. I have always followed every one of your videos. I hope you post more often.
-
The best milky way instructional stacking video I've seen! Your the man Ian!

Thank you very much for taking the time to post this. I really enjoy astrophotography, and I am fortunate enough to live in a part of the country where the night sky is extremely dark and I can literally walk out my front door, set up my tripod, and shoot the Milky Way. It's dark enough here to see it very well with the naked eye. I've been wanting to learn about image stacking for noise reduction, and this helped me tremendously.

Amazing in-depth tutorial! Thanks for being AWESOME!
-
Thank you Yan for this amazing tutorial, it is one of the most detailed tutorial I've seen on Youtube. regards,
-
Thank you, Ian! I have only done manual stacking twice and each time this video has helped guide me through the process with such detailed explanations. Superb content!
-
You have a wonderful way of explaining what you're doing and being thorough. Very nice.
-
there are no words that can describe how thankfull i am.... THANK YOU million times my friend!!!!
-
You sir, put this clip together with enough knowledge to inform and enough simplicity that it could be easily followed. Great video.
-
Thanks Ian. I actually shot the milky way in August with the RX100M4 (inspired by your tutorials on how to shoot it) Now I get another help with optimizing the quality. Will try it out. Thanks, Regards from Germany. Cheers
-
Thank you. It helped me a lot! The difference between image before and after is unbelivable!
-
Fantastic job. And your images are absolutely jaw-dropping.
-
I've been struggling , after viewing your Auto Align video, because of the problem you described here. But I love the ability to do this in Photoshop, rather than another add on or star stacking program. This tutorial hits the mark big time... well constructed, very informative and extremely helpful... Excellent in a word.. Thanks
-
Excellent tutorial, as well as the one on processing in LR. Just done my first milky way shoot, so really new to this. I found that beyond central alignment in transform, none of the other adjustments really worked well. So I used puppet warp which is fantastic for aligning parts of the image without affecting other aligned parts.

Extremely useful and well explained method! Thanks a lot Ian!
