Description

Capturing the Universe: A Photographer's Guide to Deep-Sky Imaging provides a comprehensive introduction to astrophotography for digital photographers. With over 280 images, graphs, and tables, this book offers a practical approach to imaging the night sky using existing equipment.

Starting with an astronomy primer, the book progresses through explanations of challenges, solutions, and information on equipment choice, image capture, calibration, and processing in affordable software. You'll learn how to image sweeping vistas, star trails, galaxies, clusters, nebulae, and stars, as well as tackle more advanced techniques.

Practical assignments, construction projects, and evaluations of recent hardware and software developments are also included. Written in an accessible format, this guide equips readers with the necessary skills to progress from photographer to astrophotographer.
