Sat, July 31st 4pm EDT Stunning Star Trails, by Mary McIntyre, FRAS (Fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society)
With the Perseids Meteor shower around the corner, the last two years have featured talks on photographing meteor showers (last Aug’s talk event is available on our YouTube channel). This year we are happy to host UK Astronomer Mary McIntyre to teach us how to capture the motion of the entire Night Sky. Learn absolutely everything you need to know to create star trails images like the ones on the attached poster. Mary will take us through framing and composition, camera settings, instructions on how to use the free star trails software, basic image processing and finally how to create a timelapse video of your beautiful star trails. Everything that’s covered in the talk will be available for members as a PDF star trails photography guide by Mary.
