SASI astrophotography worksh ops have a range of mentors on different subjects, like Solar, planetary, d eep space, one shot colour, filtered monochrome and the popular smart teles copes.
Workshops run on most Wednesday nights and there is no syllabu s so we're free to team up "mentors" and "mentees" in smaller groups, sub j ect to your interests.
Hans will update us with the latest happenings from the workshops.
Members can join the APWorkshop group on WhatsAp p where we'll communicate “What’s on this Wednesday”.
Ha ns and his family moved from the Netherlands to live in Australia in 1993. As an international field service engineer in medical imaging and cancer tr eatment equipment, he travelled the world and discovered Australia with cle an air, a great lifestyle and lots of business opportunities.
Masteri
ng imaging technology has been a constant in his career, ranging from sub-a
tomic scanning probe microscopes, microscopic X-ray and the large body scan
ners of one or another kind.
Hans is proud of his 3rd and last busine
ss “Gamma Gurus”, which is still going strong and prior to retirement, he t
ook an interest in Astrophotography because it looked like a challenging ho
bby at the time. It is certainly something to keep his brain ticking over a
nd get a lot of enjoyment out of this wondrous field of imaging.
Just over 3 years ago Hans joined the SASI and joined the SASPAC training cours e, hoping to learn lots about astrophotography (AP) but instead got a great insight in the much wider astronomy field and appreciation for the shared knowledge in the society.
Self study in AP lead to his first purchase
of the modern components of a telescope rig, lots of parts and cables with
software to make it sing.
In order to attract more people to the AP
hobby, Hans started to host AP workshops on most Wednesday evenings and the
re are now a fair few who joined this hobby. Hans is keen to use modern use
r interfaces and attract the younger generations as well. The AP workshops
are still going, come and join us.
Note: This will be an in-person presentation at the Green Point Observ atory. Members will also receive an invitation to join online for those who cannot make it to the GPO.
