"Photographing an astrolandscape is becoming increasingly popular. People are discovering that their digital cameras see very well in the dark and can capture the splendor of the starry skies. Infrared Milky Way photography ramps up the ability to see more detail of the magnificence of a star-filled landscape. Using digital infrared converted cameras expands their already impressive seeing abilities." - Silvana Della Camera
For our September meeting we'll have a special guest speaker, Silvana Della Camera, will give a special program about photographing the Milky Way using digital infrared. This program will have special appeal not only to photographers, but to anyone interested in gazing the stars at night so invite your friends to attend. The program will be at our regular second Thursday of the month on September 10th at 1:30 and as always is free to attend. This program will be paid for my the Valley Photo Center.
