Welcome to our Tracked Astro Photography Workshop! This comprehensive experience is specifically designed for photographers looking to delve deeper into the enchanting world of astrophotography using tracking equipment. During this workshop, you will master the art of using trackers to capture stunning, long-exposure images of the night sky, revealing intricate celestial details with exceptional clarity and depth.

One of the critical skills you'll acquire is aligning your tracker with the South Celestial Pole (SCP), a fundamental technique for successful astro photography in the southern hemisphere. We will guide you through the process of finding the SCP using visible stars or with the aid of a polar scope, ensuring your tracker is precisely oriented for optimal imaging.

Additionally, you'll learn how to choose the correct exposure settings to best capture the stars. This includes adjusting the shutter speed, aperture, and ISO to balance light capture with minimizing noise, thus enhancing the quality of your photographs. We'll also cover focusing techniques to ensure that stars appear sharp and distinct, using methods like live view zooming and focusing on bright stars or planets.

If you don’t have your own tracker, don’t worry! We provide various high-quality trackers for use during the workshop, ensuring that everyone can participate and practice these techniques effectively. Whether you're a beginner eager to explore the cosmos through your lens or an experienced photographer looking to refine your astrophotography skills, this workshop is equipped with the tools and expert guidance needed to elevate your night sky photography.

Join us under the stars for an unforgettable journey into astro photography, where you'll transform the way you see and capture the universe!
