About the event
Come and join us in store for an evening learning and discussing Astrophotography and Nightscaping.
This unique session will take you through all the considerations you will need to get out and capture your own fantastic nightscape or astro shots where we will chat about:
- What is Astrophotography and Nightscaping
- What the common terms you here
- Astro Theory
- Planning and Preparation (weather, locations, moon cycle, time of year)
- The gear you will need
- The Settings to use
At the end, I will also send you a copy of my quick guide on Astro setups ready for you to head out and try everything you have learned for yourself.
And what better way to do that than book free entry to an Astro Meet in the Blue Mountains in August where you will get to put what you have learned into practice. I will send you a voucher code to join a Blue Mountains Astro Meet to use when you sign up through Sony Scene.
