Moonset Projection

Magnitude

A Photographic Exhibition

Campbelltown Arts Centre

This projected Moonset image was taken in Ocober 2010 when Macarthur Astronomical Society held our first ever public photographic display at the Campbelltown Arts Centre, in conjunction with a broader Cambelltown City Council event, probably the Fisher’s Ghost Festival. We called the event “Magnitude” and had plenty of visitors.

The tree silhouettes are not Arts Centre obstructions, they are part of my actual lunar photograph. Here is the original image, taken earlier that year:

It was a week long exhibition. The exhibition closed at 5 pm but the broader festivities out in the street carried on for the rest of the evenings. So we provided the Arts Centre with a DVD containing members photos, which they sequentially projected on to a huge external wall near the main entrance. The above image was one of my inclusions.

Recuperation

😬

I’ve been in hospital recently for major scheduled surgery and have been told I will require at least six weeks home rest and recuperation. My Bride is watching me like a hawk so I may have no choice about that.

Fortunately I managed a couple of imaging sessions beforehand, so I might be able to post some pictures over the next few weeks but I’ll leave those until I feel a bit more able to process them and see if they turned out.

Thanks for looking!
