Night Sky Photography with Andy Gray
Friday 2nd February 2024 from 19:00pm to 22:00pm
Lord Crewe Arms
The Square, Blanchland, County Durham, DH8 9SP, North East
The development of camera technology over the past 20 years has enabled us to capture the beauty of the night sky like never before. The Lord Crewe Arms is situated within Northumberland’s Dark Skies and benefits from very little light pollution. Come along and enjoy an evening learning how to get the best out of your camera, improve your understanding of photography, and take great night sky images. All are welcome, with or without a camera. If you have attended Andy’s Stargazing evenings and wish to know more, this is the event for you! There will be some up-to-date astrophotography gear to see if you are interested in getting into this amazing hobby!
Please note that this has already taken place on 02/02/2024
