The effects of the atmosphere in astrophotography

The effects of the atmosphere in astrophotographyIf you have ever wondered why it is sometimes difficult to capture the Moon when it is close to the horizon or why some nights without clouds you get disappointing results compared to others, then this will be a very special episode for you. This week I talk about how the airmass or the seeing can affect our images. I also talk about the lucky imaging technique that help us counteract these effects and give us more sharper images of the moon and planets.Episode’s time index:The airmass: 03:40 minThe seeing: 09:02 minLucky imaging: 14:51 minYou can find me in:Website: http://skywonders.ieTwitter: http://twitter.com/antmarcarrInstagram: http://instagram.com/skywonders_ieFacebook: http://facebook.com/skywondersie

If you have ever wondered why galaxies, nebulae, etc. have the shapes and colours that the all the astrophotos show. And if you have always wanted to venture into the world of astrophotography to photograph those objects yourself. Then, this is your podcast! Here we will talk, in a clear and easy way, about the science behind all those images taken with the big telescopes. This will helps us planning better our astrophotography sessions and get the maximum out of our astrophotography sessions. We will also talk about the equipment needed to enter the world of landscape and deep field astrophotography, processing techniques and workflows.
