02) Julian Starfest 2009 (August 21-23)
One of the terrific summertime public star parties in Southern California takes
place next weekend (Friday, Aug. 21 through Sunday, Aug. 23) in the beautiful
mountain community of Julian,
California. In addition to
stargazing with amazing telescope, Julian
Starfest 2009 will feature other exciting activities, lectures,
tours, and more. And if you’re interested in learning some of the “behind-the-scenes”
stories of how I create my sky photos—and to pick up some tips for
yourself—be sure to attend my lecture (Capture the Cosmos!) at 3:00 p.m. PDT on
Saturday. For more information on joining all the fun that weekend,
visit: http://www.julianstarfest.com/
Hope to see you there!
