About
For most amateur astronomers today, the reality of stargazing involves dealing with light pollution. For imagers of the deep sky, the good news is there are ways to deal with bright night skies, which make distant nebulae and galaxies viable targets from urban and suburban skies.

Expert astrophotographer Charlotte will take us through these options, from light-pollution filters to narrowband imaging, and from planning a good dark-sky location to a look at some of the processing workflows available to reduce LP in programs like Photoshop and SIRIL.

In the second part of the Masterclass there is a Q&A with Charlotte Daniels and Editor Chris Bramley.

All registrants will have access to the Masterclass recording once the event has ended and will be able to watch this recording for a maximum of 10 times.
