Astro Photography

Paul de Rosenroll
I've have been fascinated by the night sky since I was a kid. I built my first telescope when I was twenty-four. I now have a few of them, much better ones. I could look through them for hours but that's hard on the neck, so I hooked a camera up to them and take pictures to stare at.
The night sky doesn't readily give up it's secrets. Anyone can point a camera up at night and snap a photo, but they'd be lucky to get anything other than dots in the sky. I yearn to explore deeper, farther, beyond the apparent. I know there is so much more up there and I want to capture it.
Through trial and error (and good ol' blood, sweat and gears) I've managed to amass a good deal of knowledge on how to bring out the wonder and beauty of the stars. I would love to share what I know with you so you, too, can enhance your images. Check out my workshops and tutorials to learn how to get the most out of your equipment.
This video is a combination of astrophotography and good ol' sure shot videography. The audio reveals the excitement of the event. It's as close as you can get to actually being there.
