Ratings and Reviews
Jonathan McGrail
Found the Capture the Atlas website a couple of years ago and it has invaluable information. Earlier this year I decided to spend the money on the Milky Way courses. The course overall has been outstanding and post processing modules are amazingly helpful. Thanks to course I successfully, not perfectly, captured the Milky Way last month in New Hampshire.
Andrew Notaristefano
This course really helped take my astrophotography to the next level. The step by step workflow and the videos where Dan does start to finish edits are tremendously helpful. I felt stuck in my learning curve and some of the steps in Dan's course were eyeopening. I couldn't recommend this course highly enough.
Bikram Ghosh
The whole course is a fantastic hub of knowledge for advanced MW shooting and post-processing. The flow of the course is great. I recommend it for any and everyone wanting to advance their skills in the world of widefield astro photography. I was very skeptical at first , which discussed with Dan too but honestly I feel this was one of the best things I did.
Joe Ramirez
Explaining the apps to plan Milky Way Photography was very useful. Editing using Lightroom Classic and Photoshop taught me many new adjustments. I am now completing the tracking modules. I used the planning guidance when we photographed the Maroon Bells and the Milky Way last September.
Charles D Dunbar
I liked how each section was narrow and specific to an action or function. I also liked the overlap and repetition between the different segments. The lightroom and photoshop sections helped reinforce each other.
I have liked everything so far, I would say this is a very useful course for me. Dan is great and explains in great detail, my admiration for that!
