Como principiante y a mi edad (78 años) lo más importante es conocer lo básico e ir avanzando despacio.

Estoy reiniciando el curso y espero ser disciplinado para terminarlo

Practical and informative course

This is a complete course for anyone wanting to learn imaging the Milky Way. It is broad and sufficiently deep in its content for the beginner and even intermediate night sky photographer. I wish the access to the course was life-long rather than an annual subscription. This is a course for learning and not a software. I can understand paying an annual subscription if there were regular updates.

Hi Venki, thank you for your nice words about the course. I just wanted to clarify that the course includes lifetime access. I’ve never had a subscription model in my courses, and you’ll have lifetime access to all the tutorials and video updates.

Best,
Dan

Getting clear, crisp shots

Like the fact that it was easy instructions and very easy to comprehend. I can’t wait to try this out living in Utah and where I am now I have a lot of dark sky and I can’t wait to go to Zion‘s cause I’m very close to it to give this a try.
