Images taken from our own village...

Although the skies near large cities are not ideal for astrophotography, with a little science and technology, even amateurs can capture good-quality images of our skies. Of course, patience and a bit of luck are required, as not every night is perfect for pointing telescopes at the sky. In this exhibition, PlusUltra-Orionis presents some of the images taken over the last five years. Alongside the exhibition, you can also explore photographic techniques using four information panels. Additionally, we will be available in the afternoons on some selected days to answer any questions you may have (timetable will be show at the library in advance).
