RICK BARBER
Dan goes into a tremendous amount of detail in each course. His step by step guide in using photo shop and other software has given me the resources I will need and use for many years to come. Love the fact I can go back and review any of the modules in all 3 courses.

Dan's milky way course has been such an incredible investment. He has structured the course so that it has been so easy to follow, including all of the essential information to help develop my confidence to capture and edit milky way images. With just the one-off payment, this is a fabulous course made even better as Dan provides updates to the course documents.
Ned Whiteley
A year ago I had never even pointed a camera at the Milky Way and had always assumed that the images you see in magazines were way beyond my reach. Having now completed all three parts of Dan's Capture the Milky Way course, I am totally hooked. The course content is outstanding, easy to follow and professionally presented and I have learnt so much. I highly recommend these exceptional courses.

I already had night photography experience, but this course allows you to take a big step forward. Essential information about star trackers, stacking, post processing and many advanced techniques. One of my photos, taken after the course, was selected by National Geographic as the best night photo of the week. I would recommend it 100%. Thank you very much Dan!
nice progression and detail
