Introduction to Astrophotography 2025!

Advertisement

I've been running astrophotography workshops since 2017 and believe it or not astrophotography is easy to get started in! Within a few short hours I can teach you the basics of astro photography and open a new world to your images. But be warned, astro is addictive!

Over the course of an evening I’ll run you through the fundamentals you need to plan a successful astro shoot and capture the night’s sky. We’ll start in the classroom where we go through some basic theory including:

* My favorite planning apps for the phases of the moon and position of the stars
* Basic considerations for astro shooting such as the “500 rule”
* RAW v’s JPG for astro
* Composition composition composition!
* Camera configuration tailored to your equipment
* Fundamentals of single frame astro, star trails and panoramas
* My favorite processing programs for astro

Then we’ll head into the field ready for full astro dark, around 30 minutes from Canberra’s CBD, where we’ll set up our cameras and for three hours we’ll shoot the amazing night sky and put that theory into practice
