Solar Eclipse Gallery
9th April 2024

As promised in the previous post, here is my Total Solar Eclipse photo gallery featuring the best photos I could find online. I wish even just one of these photos was mine.

Full Moon Photography workshop
15th March 2024

What is a Full Moon Photography workshop? I'm sure by now you have seen that NASA often publishes striking images of the full moon aligned with famous landmarks. There's a photo by an Italian photographer published a couple of months ago that has become quite famous. And for good reasons, because the alignment is simply spot on. Something that obviously requires lots of knowledge and preparation. Well, these things can be taught....

Moon image created with Midjourney AI
15th February 2024

I recently asked an AI, in this case Microsoft's Copilot AI, to produce a creative blog post to promote my new Full Moon Photography workshops in London. The result was, at times, both hilarious and poetic, so I decided to publish this anyway. Though it may not be all made-up nonsense: in fact, the band Pearl Jam decided to turn into music and lyrics the same Super Blood Wolf Moon I had...

Comet Neowise over London
14th July 2020

A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, that's what photographing Comet Neowise over London (or anywhere else, really) is! I'm not going to dive into too many descriptions of the event. I'm sure you all know about it by now.This is a once-in-a-lifetime event because the comet was only discovered last March, and it won't be visible again for another 7000 years (seven thousand!). You still have plenty of time to witness it, as it will...
