Webinar’s Details
Title: Finding hidden treasures in narrowband data with Sulphur-II luminance compositing
Host: Alex Curry, Co-Founder of Telescope Live
Guest: Nik Szymanek
Time & Date: Saturday, 9th of March at 6 PM UTC
Hybrid Workflow Masterclass: A Novel Approach to Narrowband Processing
Nik Szymanek, a UK-based astro-imager and deep sky image processing tutor, is no stranger to pushing the boundaries of astrophotography. With years of experience and a passion for exploring the cosmos through the lens of advanced imaging techniques, Nik has developed a novel approach that promises to add a new dimension to your astrophotography projects.
