How to Plan and Photograph Meteor Showers

Join photographer Matt Hill of National Parks at Night for a master class on how to plan and prepare to photograph a meteor shower. This presentation is timed so that you can practice for meteor showers happening in December and January.  

Night photography is exciting. Meteors are even more exciting. And who doesn’t like seeing flaming balls of extraterrestrial matter arcing across the sky! But what if you want to deliberately capture these meteors and assemble it into stunning composite images that show what how many meteors flamed across our atmosphere over many hours?

We will talk about these two main goals:
* How to capture the ‘holy grail’ radiant composite and an introduction on how to process it
* How to plan and capture other types of meteor shower images–in any direction

Join Matt for a thorough explanation on how to prepare for and shoot the remarkable experience that meteor showers bring.
