Early Bird registration is ending August 31. After that the price goes up for the Riverside Imaging Workshop.
I had posted an ad with the details earlier, but it is apparently no longer available. So, here are the details of what was in the ad:
Registration is open for the fourth annual Riverside AstroImaging Workshop, taking place at the Pasadena Convention Center on PATS Friday, September 16. With lots to see and learn, and more than $5000 worth of door prizes, all the imagers will want to be there.
This year’s presenters include some truly well known names in the art and science of taking celestial images:
• Ken Crawford, of the Advanced Imaging Conference in San Jose, will present for two sessions, sharing his expertise on “Digging out the Details” and “The Cure for Anemic Color.”
• Warren Keller, who produced the Imaging tutorials video set Image Processing for Astrophotography will present three sessions for the the "general" crowd centering on his techniques for getting the sharpest, cleanest details from processing.
• R Jay GaBany, last year’s Chambliss Award (for the amateur who contributed most to the science of Astronomy) will be talking about how to do science with your images.
• Tim Puckett, of Apogee, will be continuing the science theme by talking about how to use one’s images, though data mining, to make new discoveries.
• Wolfgang Promper, from Austria, will present an advanced session for those who want to know the latest in selecting camera equipment for astroimaging.
• Rojelio Bernal, who produces stunning images from sites in the Bay area, will be helping in the general category, discussing the details of wide field imaging.
• Daniel Perry, who established the Yahoo Group SoCalAstroPhoto will focus on getting started in imaging, including equipment selection, and acquiring the first images.
There will be two strands so that both beginning and advanced imagers will be able to take advantage of the workshop. You are free to attend sessions in either strand. There are five sessions of a bit more than an hour each in each strand.
We have already over $5000 worth of door prizes arranged, including a camera from Apogee. (Special Thanks--Tim Puckett!!). You are welcome to join us for lunch, and can buy discount PATS tickets through the workshop registration.
