Intro to Astro Photography

Do you gaze up at the night sky with wonder? What about looking up at the stars and thinking, How old is that light you are seeing? Maybe you watch as day and night morph into one, and the stars come out to play. This meetup is going to cover everything you need to know to start capturing amazing single-shot astrophotography and a few extra bits of helpful advice. The learnt basics of capturing a single frame will form the building blocks of your astrophotography journey. Think of this meetup as your first step on that journey, or for those who have already started, maybe a road sign. Astrophotography looks amazing and packs a real punch; however, you do not need to spend a fortune to partake. Does gear make a difference? The simple answer is yes, but it is not the deciding factor when it comes to astrophotography. This meetup will look at planning your session, camera settings, and required equipment. I want this meetup to help you maximise your current gear as you start capturing Milky Way shots. This is very dependent on there being no clouds! I'll keep you updated on current forecasts the week before the event.
