An Encyclopedia of the Night Sky

I’ve always been a great admirer of night sky photography. My appreciation for this genre of photography stems from growing up in the Highlands of Scotland, where, on a clear you could see what felt like the entire universe above you head.

It is however a genre of photography that I’ve never properly attempted myself. The main stumbling block for me has been a lack of skills and knowledge, but also, it is perhaps that while I don’t mind getting up early in the morning, I’m a bit less keen on staying out all night.

When I received my copy of Photographing the Night Sky by Alyn Wallace I decided to change that. There was no point in having a copy of this book if I didn’t put what I learnt to good use.

So, in this special episode of On My Bookshelf, I not only tell you all about the encyclopedic levels of information in this book, but I also share the photographs that I captured using the knowledge I gained from this book. Enjoy!
