ASTROPHOTOGRAPHY


Night sky photography is extremely rewarding because we often capture of things that our own eyes either can't see, or never think of looking to them. When seeing photos of stars, heavenly objects, or other night images, we often surprised by the facinating colors it gives. People often think these photos captured are either unreal or manipulated. While that could be the case, what most people don't understand about light is that the human eye doesn't discern between the chemical compounds that make up light. Humans view a very narrow spectrum. Cameras, on the other hand, can pick up light wavelengths that is composed of chemical compounds like helium, hydrogen, and so on. These chemicals change the color of light that we can't easily see, but cameras can.

I make this blog about astrophotography, to invite astrophotographers to share their experiences in night photography or astrophotography in the area of Abu Dhabi and might organized an event for astrophotography.

Before the week end came I was invited and discovered a heavenly place in the heart of desert where it is an excellent location to strart an astrophotography career.
