stargazing with an astronomer

start off with a tour of the night sky while your eyes adapt to the dark - planets, stars and constellations will be pointed out accompanied by star lore. a 200mm Aperture telescope and astronomy binoculars will be provided for the session. 

if you have binoculars of your own, a few tricks will be shared that you could not imagine possible. basic astrophotography tips can be shared if you have a DLSR camera and tripod. even smartphones are welcome for pictures of the stars.

if the weather is bad/cloudy, a digital media presentation with indigenous star lore can be enjoyed. the rate is for 2 persons for 2 hours, on Olive View. session lead by Astronomer Willem Koorts.
