An Introduction To Astrophotography with Mathew Browne

About the Talk, from Mathew:

Astrophotography is one of the most technically challenging but rewarding genres of photography.

This talk describes my complete workflow in planning, executing and post-processing images which combine the night sky with the beautiful landscapes of Wales. You will learn about how to shoot celestial objects such as:

• Meteor showers

• The Milky Way

• The International Space Station

• The Moon

• The Northern Lights

  
  

I will explain how best to achieve these images using entry-level equipment as well as describing what can be achieved with more specialist lenses.

From Mathew

I am a photographer from Carmarthen, South Wales specialising in cityscape, landscape and night photography. My photography career began as a passionate amateur photographer taking the best photos I can while on holiday – to date I have visited nearly 50 countries. Now I teach others how to take stunning travel photos and my hobby has become my profession – I work with tourist boards as a freelance travel photographer, sell prints of my images, run photo tours and write photographic guides.

I married my professional background in software development with a love for photography and travel by creating PhotoHound, the app for travel photographers for which I am a very proud co-founder. I also develop photography products for Skylum Software, the creators of Luminar – the acclaimed and groundbreaking photo editing software.
