Silver River Astrophotography and Stargazing Experience

Silver River Astrophotography and Stargazing Experience

You’ll learn about the fundamentals of astrophotography and deep sky objects using both telescopes and digital cameras and experience a rare sight; the night sky in an International Dark Sky Reserve! This tour is pure magic if you are wanting to learn or extend your astrophotography skills.

Tours will be customised depending on the weather conditions and what you wants to do. This could include wide-angle imagery of the scenery and night sky, imagery of the milky way or constellations, capturing star trails or night time-lapse animations. We will also be offering the opportunity to capture deep sky images through a telescope (available for customers with Canon DSLR’s). And to top it off, we’ll also help you process the images post-capture.
