About this event

The regular monthly DVAA Astrophotography Workshop is a free, open session for club members to discuss and share images and techniques. The date of the workshop generally falls on the Wednesday before the monthly DVAA General Meeting.

The first half hour of the workshop, from approximately 7:00 pm to 7:30 pm will be a Beginner's Q&A session.  So, if you're new to astrophotography, please join in at around 7:00 pm and ask away.

The regular part of the workshop will start at around 7:30 pm.  Participants are encouraged to join early for the introduction of new attendees, a special topic of interest from time to time, a Show & Tell session, and for Q&A.

This month's workshop will include a short "Back to Basics" presentation by DVAA Astrophotography Chair, Gary Trapuzzano, on the Histogram and Curves Transformation tools.  The basic controls for these two tools will be discussed and illustrated using image processing software such as PixInsight and Photoshop.

During the Show & Tell portion of the workshop, participants are encouraged to share images they've taken or processed recently, and to discuss or show new astrophotography equipment or projects they're working on.  Other topics of discussion may include image acquisition tips, processing workflows, hardware and software setups, with occasional presentations focusing on aspects of deep sky object or planetary imaging.

The event is live streamed to the @DelawareValleyAmateurAstro YouTube Channel.

NOTE: The Zoom link does not change and will only become active and working during the actual meeting time. No registration is required.
