This week the Fine Art Astrophotography group reached a new milestone of 1,000 images in the FAA gallery. To commemorate this accomplishment we are hosting a presentation by one of the pioneers of fine art astrophotography, J-P Metsavainio. This event is open to everyone.
Most amateur astrophotographers know J-P’s work and use some of the processing techniques that he invented. If you incorporate Tone Mapping in your processing, then you are relying on an innovation of J-P Metsavainio. For more than a decade, his focus has been the combining of art and science in astrophotography. The imagery that has come from his effort is recognized worldwide as groundbreaking for its beauty and dramatic impact, and has been published by National Geographic, Smithsonian, NASA, Sky & Telescope, and many more.
The title of J-P's presentation is, Astrophotography as a Art Form, his views on art and science, and the processing approaches he uses. The presentation will begin at 7:00p (GMT +2), on July 3, 2021. Since we anticipate a worldwide audience for this presentation, the time of the event was chosen to accommodate the largest number of AstroBin users.
