Description
When is the last time you have seen the Milky Way and the stars? Get away from town and away from its visual pollution of light. The sky is full of stars!!
This class will help you see AND photograph the night skies – the stars, and the Milky Way! It is fun, exciting, and fulfilling to create a photograph of the Milky Way!
