"Astrophotography on a Budget" at Sydney City Skywatchers tonight

[iceman]

Hi all

I'm giving a talk at the Sydney City Skywatchers group tonight, on "Astrophotography on a Budget".

It's at the Sydney Observatory, meeting starts at 6:30pm.

Thanks to Harry for the invite!

Looking forward to it.

Is that open to everyone Mike or do you have to pre-book?

Any Chance of a Webcast?

I went. Definitely worth going. Some of Mike's animations of Jupiter were absolutely spellbinding. I particularly appreciated the emphasis on budget. While the ten thousand dollar camera will do a great deal, it might not be an essential item. One can do well for a tenth of that amount - or less.

About twenty people came for the meeting. The regular business progressed very tidily - very little raving. The SCS crew seem to be very well organised.

Thanks to Mike for his input. Hope to hear (and see) more down the track.

Regards,
Tony Barry

I also went last night and was fascinated by the talk that Mike gave and the images that he presented. Thanks to Mike and to RB for their advice and I look froward to seeing them at the Pony Club in the not too distant future.

I had a great time, it was great to meet you Frank (telecasterguru) and to listen to the presentations (well done Mike), I also enjoyed the solar viewing observation reports.
Thank you to Sydney City Skywatchers for organising the meeting and the warm welcome.

:thumbsup:

PS looking forward to seeing you at the pony club Frank !
