******************************************
Friday July 5th, Wachapreague on the Eastern
Shore of Virginia
The Milky Way over the Atlantic Ocean Workshop 2024 with
Astro Photographer Jim Baugh. July 25th
Friday July 5th I will be holding a special Milky Way workshop in the Wachapregue area on the Eastern Shore of Virginia.
Fee is $425 per photographer. Workshop is limited to a total
of four (4) photographers. A guest can accompany each photographer but please
limit it to only one guest please. There is no fee for the attending guest.
Instruction includes: How to film the Milky Way from single
exposure to trackers, timelapse, and Shadowpainting foregrounds for
Nightscapes, and post processing.
Time:
Meet at 7 pm June 5th at the Wachapregue Inn, departure is
7:30 sharp.
Payment: (no payment until day of event)
There is no deposit required, simply email jbotv@outlook.com
and we will reserve and confirm your reservation. Please include your contact
info in the email including cell phone. Payment must be made by physical check
at time of arrival in Wachapregue.
Weather:
The reason there is no deposit is because there is always a
good chance clear skies will not be available. If this is the case, and the
other window dates are also cloudy, then this workshop will be rescheduled for
the following new moon month of August. The week of July 5th we will be
monitoring the weather charts and will notify everyone if the workshop has
clear enough predicted skies for the event.
Participants knowledge of photographic gear:
Each participant must have a full knowledge and
understanding of the exposure triangle (ISO, Aperture Shutter). This is not a
workshop of how to teach basic understandings of photography. Participants
should be very familiar with their own gear.
Accommodation: If you are traveling a good distance I
suggest booking a room at the Wachapregue Inn. We will be filming in a 10 mile
surrounding area. If coming from Virginia Beach and looking for a good central
place on the Shore and may want to try a couple of dark sky sites a good
location would be the Oyster Farm in Cape Charles. This puts you at a good
mid-point for Red Bank and Magothy Bay.
Gear:
Bring your camera, and it should be capable of ISO ranging
from at least 100 to 12,000 ISO. Tripod, tracker if you have it if not, camera
lens and tripod and your good. If you don’t have some sort of red light for
night vision, you should get one. Also suggest some sort of heat pack for the
lens to help combat condensation. I use 3 hand warmers wrapped around the lens.
An intervalometer is a good thing to have if you are
planning a timelapse. I use a remote on one camera and internal on the 6d Mark
2.
For Shadowing painting / light painting. You should have an
infield GRB light with about a 8 foot or longer nightstand. Participants don’t
have to film the foreground section of the class, this will occur after filming
the Milky Way, somewhere between 2 and 4 in the am. This technique of multi
exposure foreground imaging is a highly powerful tool to have in your arsenal.
Remote triggering is a must for Shadowpainting. I use a
Wi-Fi network connection and control the camera through the cannon smartphone
app. It you don’t have a Wi-Fi camera you can use a wireless intervalometer,
however it is limiting compared to Wi-Fi. If you have questions about this just
email jbotv@outlook.com
Suggested focal length for wide field. 11 to 24 mm. I use a
11 to 16 and a 17 to 35.
You will also want to adjust brightness way down on your
monitor once night sets.
Tips:
· Wear dark
clothing and be fully covered. This will aid in post processing while masking
the foreground exposures.
· Bring water
and insect repellent.
· For dining,
the Island house is right there by the Inn, excellent food. Just make sure you
are done dinner and ready to roll at 7:30pm
To confirm your spot just email jbotv@outlook.com For
further questions just send an email and if you would like to chat just include
your phone number and we will contact you.

I went to the Dr because of a foot ache, they admitted me and a month later was released with a new pacemaker. Here is my heart story
I went to the Dr because of a foot ache, they admitted me and
a month later was released with a new pacemaker. Here is my heart story.
 |
| JB first full day out after a month in the hospital. |
Going back over 30 years ago was my first gout attack in my left foot. Fortunately, gout flair ups for me rarely happened, but in my 30’s and 40’s I have had to deal with my share of horrible gout pain.
All was good with no flair ups for years until recently I
found myself in horrible gout pain and of course went to the Doctor. Upon
examination, the Dr told me this was not gout, and he explained why. Only a few
days after my visit I had noticed at times an incredible shortness of breath and
my heart seemed to be racing a million miles per hour. Something was wrong.
With support and encouragement from some close friends, they
convinced me to go get checked out and I did. I ask my friend Diane to give me
a lift to the local Doc in the Box because I had this strange feeling, I would
not be needing a car or a while… I was right.
As soon as I was being examined, I started hearing them say
things like, “He is turning blue!’ His hands are also quickly turning blue!” In
only minutes I was sped off in an ambulance heading to a real hospital.
I arrived and immediately was sent to ICU where things
happend real fast. Once they stabilized me, I was then sent off to Sentara Heart
Hospital in Norfolk Virginia. My foot was still raging in pain, so they gave me
something to ease the discomfort.
Now, they got me set up in a room where I would stay for the
next month. Turns out what I thought was gout was actually congestive heart
failure and my heart was in afib. This explained a lot regarding how I felt.
The good Doctors went to work on me big time, tackling several issues all at
once. One of the big issues was getting rid of the fluid I was retaining from
the poor circulation. They did an amazing job, everyone every day I was there took
such excellent care of me, and I am alive because of it.
Now there was one rather strange thing that happened during
my first week or so at the hospital. I had a VERY strange reaction to the pain meds.
I became delusional and I did not even know what state I was in. Somehow in my
mind I landed in Roanoke Virginia at my brother-in-law’s new health Clinique.
Well, the visual delusions just kept going from there, it was scary as hell.
Strangers were hanging out at my room door, and the handles to the door cabinets
on my dresser were moving! It got worse. No need to get into it, but very
scary.
Finally, when I had enough clarity, I explained to the nurse
that whatever pain meds I was on to take me off. The side effects were too
great. They made med adjustments, and all the demons went away, never to
return.
The main reason I have gone public with this story is
because in my case, gout was probably a misdiagnoses many years ago. My Dr said
I probably did start out with gout attacks all those years ago, but then at
some point congestive heart failure kicked in, and I never knew it until it was
almost too late.
The team of Doctors got my heart out of Afib, and ended up
installing a pacemaker to make sure my heart rate stays up where it should be
to lead an active lifestyle which is what I have always done.
I never felt better. Today was my first full day out of the
hospital and can’t tell you how great it was to walk the beach again. My heart
is in excellent shape, but after a month of bedrest, my legs have gotten weak. So
these next two weeks its plenty of PT for me, and only 3 weeks away from being
able to bike again.
I had lost 30 pounds prior to this happening and dropped
another 35 or 40 in the hospital totaling a loss of around 70 pounds. Almost at
my goal weight!
I also did a “reset” Back in the Fall of 2023. The health benefits
of not drinking have been very good and recommend it. My doctors certainly
thought it was a great idea that I had done that and suggested to keep it up.
My family, friends, and employer were really there for me
the entire time. I can’t say enough thanks to all that helped and supported me.
The quality of medical service I received at Sentara Heart Hospital was beyond exceptional,
thank yall folks for keeping me alive and kicking!
Well, I got 62 years out of Jim Baugh Version 1.0. Now with
the new Jim Baugh Version 2.0, maybe hit 120!
By Spring and Summer we will have some more JBOTV new
features also more Milky Way Nightscapes. I will also be shooting all sorts of
incredible renovations from Solid Structures here in Va Beach, awesome company.
So friends and neighbors, if you ever seem to have an unwarranted
shortness of breath an you feel your heart is racing, DON’T WAIT! Get yourself
to the emergency room ASAP.
Thanks everyone for your thoughts and prayers, I know it
made a big difference and very much appreciated. Thank you!
Godspeed,
Jim Baugh

A Nightscape Christmas Card to all!
A Nightscape Christmas Card to all!
Went down tonight to shoot the Va Beach Boardwalk Christmas Lights by air and it was quite amazing. Heck, the drive there knocked my socks off just passing the Cavalier. The Jefferson better get their game on big!! LOL
Would like to wish everyone from Jim and Jazz the Merriest of Christmases and the best New Year.
If you would like to send gifts, here is the list.
Jazz wants a bag of rawhide bones, with a side jar of peanut butter. A day at the doggie spa (Jazz accepts coupons or gift cards) And lastly... a rubber cat.
That’s it.
God Bless, and Merry Christmas.
Jim B
On the way back filmed the Cavalier. Awesome!

New Release "Atlantic Avenue" A new jazz tune composed and performed by Jim Baugh Virginia Beach VA 2023
This certainly was a fun one to produce. Inspiration was from having a cup of Java and people watching by the boardwalk in Virginia Beach near King Neptune.
Godspeed.
JB
Audio: Recorded in one take, Mermaid Bay Studio Virginia Beach VA. Piano Yamaha KX88 with a Roland JV1080 Synth module. 64 voice piano patch / sample. Mastered in Adobe Audition.
Video: Aerials filmed by Jim Baugh FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot Airman Licensed. Edited in Premier Pro with custom luts (original). Some video appears courtesey Solid Structures Virginia Beach VA.
" I just listened/watched your new song, and got to tell you that some things are a constant in life. And one of those things is your ability to "shred" (as we guitar players call it) on the piano, all while making it look easy. You are, and always have been an amazing and talented musician. Keep it rolling!"
~Bob Breckencamp

Having a morning coffee in the studio, catch on Facebook Michiel Bortslap "Liked" Atlantic Avenue. Well, about fell out of my studio chair. Bortslap is one of my top favorite Jazz pianest in the world right up there with Lyle Mays. Michiel has also done extensive work with two of my favorite musicians, Gino Vannelli and Bill Bruford, who we were fortunate enough to host him on Jim Baugh Outdoors TV.
If you like piano music, definatley check out Bortslap. His playing with Gino / duo on Brother to Brother, is awesome and definatley worth checking out. Link Below

Jim Baugh I have a Yamaha DX27 that looks similar. It has a voice 'B3 Tease', reminds me of the 60's music. It has lots of pianos but none of them sound like this. Must be the operator. 😃 Great tune my friend. I mainly use my DX as a midi lately. Thanks for sharing
Ray Cochrane
Sounded like an overture for a musical...well done.
Peggy O'Hara
Beautifully done.
