BSIG Presentation - Narrowband Imaging From Your Backyard - Sat. Feb. 2nd 1:30-3:30pm - Hopkins Library
Hello everyone,
Just a reminder that the next BSIG event will be on Saturday February 2nd from 1:30-3:30pm at the Hopkins Public Library.
Hopkins Public Library
22 11th Ave. N.
Hopkins, MN 55343
Valts Triebergs, veteran MAS Deep Sky Imager, will be presenting: Narrowband Imaging From Your Backyard
Synopsis: This talk will illustrate a basic understanding of astrophotography that can be done by amateur astronomers. It is important to understand what light is, and how we use the physical phenomenon of light to capture images. This presentation will not focus on photo processing and software. Instead, we will learn about how digital cameras see and capture light, as well as commonly available tools that can filter out the junk and keep the good light...
We hope to see you there!

I'm pumped for this. Anyone who is at least semi interested in imaging should come listen to Valts' presentation. After seeing his rig at LLCC.....yeah, just go.
