Intro to Astro Photography
Friday 05 July
Wentworth Falls Picnic Area - 7pm - 2 Hours
Robert Palejs
Do you gaze up at the night sky with wonder?
What about looking up at the stars and thinking, how old that light you are seeing is?
Maybe you watch as day and night morph into one, and the stars come out to play.
This meetup is going to cover everything you need to know to start capturing amazing single-shot astrophotography and a few extra bits of helpful advice. The learned basics of capturing a single frame will form the building blocks of your astrophotography journey. Think of this meetup as your first step on that journey or for those who have already started, maybe a road sign.
Astrophotography looks amazing and packs a real punch, however, you do not need to spend a fortune to partake. Does gear make a difference, the simple answer is yes, but it is not the deciding factor when it comes to astrophotography.
This meetup will look at planning your session, camera settings, and required equipment. I want this meetup to help you maximize your current gear as your start capturing milky way shots.

Nature Photography Meetup
Saturday 01 June
Mrs Macquaries Road - 10am - 2 Hours
Peace Brown
Join this session for tips on how to use your camera settings to creatively capture nature in a visually interesting way. We will be looking at composition, focus, and colour.
Many professional offices and places of business have large prints gracing their wall space of things such as fields of flowers, a butterfly perched on a leaf, and a single dew drop on a rose petal. These beautiful images are all around us in nature. It just takes that special "eye" to not only see it but to capture it in a way that will turn that simple little piece of nature into a beautiful piece of art. We will learn how to use different angles, light and shadows, and settings to make subjects pop.

I was very impressed even before the course started as Rob sent out an email the day before, with the meet up details along with what would be covered during the course. I had a couple of questions and he replied very promptly.
During the course, I was also very impressed how Rob explained the technicalities of astrophotography and took the time to guide and comment on everyone's images throughout the evening. I learned how to use the infinity marker on my lens for focusing and also asked Rob for his advice on lenses and what to consider when choosing lenses. I also had my camera fail on two occasions during the evening and Rob explained how to go about resetting the camera and overcoming the problem.
We had a brilliant night for astrophotography and I came away with quite a number images that looked fanatstic without needing to be edited.
Thank you very much Rob!

I received my first camera at 8 years old and photography has been a part of my life ever since. For me photography is not just a job, it is something I am extremely passionate about and love to do. Photography has always been about the next image for me and the adventure to get it. What makes that adventure is the experience and people along the way. I believe that Photography should trigger a response and move a viewer.

The lotus ponds in Candidasa are about the size of a footy oval and directly opposite the town temple. Early in the morning you will be greeted by a sea of lotus flowers waiting to attract the local birds and insects. As you can see the white cheeked carpenter bee is a common resident. The image was captured with my go to kit of Fujifilm XT5 XF100-400 and as the sun was bright the settings were as you can imagine not challenging.

Lone Joshua tree in the Arizona desert. Captured in Date Creek Ranch just off the Joshua Tree Parkway, north of Wickenburg. It's this city's glow causing the light pollution on the horizon.Wickenburg was once called the "Dude Ranch Capital of the World". It still has several ranches and a decidedly western vibe. It's a great place to check out if you wanna get some old west dust in your lungs. Stack of 4, 15" photos. Sony A7RIV, 14mm F1.8, ISO3200.

Title or Location: Night-time at Portland Bill lighthouse
The weather forecast for the night Friday the 3rd May looked very good and because the last time I went to Portland Bill I didn't manage to get home with anything good, I thought of giving it another go. Even though it was a 4 hour drive from my house, I'm over the moon I went there because I haven't seen the sky so nice and clean in a very, very long time, it was just perfect.I took quite a few photos and this one is the first that I want to show you because I love it to bits.As always, I
