Bring your camera and tripod; if you don't have one, a bag of beans (yes, beans from the grocery store) to stabilize it.
This is a session in which you will learn how to take photos of the night sky from one of the darkest accessible locations in the World: Star Safari in the Wairarapa Dark Sky Reserve. No need to trek through the famous New Zealand bushes at night. No need to pitch your tent while waiting for a dark sky.
Just drive to Star Safari, and we will show you how things work,
but if you like to prepare in advance,
Check out this link for a comprehensive astrophotography guide by award-winning astrophotographer (and friend) Alex Conu. It is a fantastic guide for beginners.

Clear skies,
Hari and Sam
