The Art of Astrophotography

Astrophotography is a new genre, constantly changing, difficult to judge. It requires patience, dedication, a photograph can also require a week of shots. But it allows us to explore the universe that surrounds us and to reach places that will remain inaccessible to us for so long.

Wonders are not just part of our planet. Every corner of the cosmos hides incredible panoramas that are just waiting to be discovered.

Astrophotography is never considered in most competitions because it is considered "difficult to judge".
Instead, every day it becomes an increasingly widespread photographic art form. It's time to make a change and show everyone that today study, commitment and passion can enable us to explore the whole universe.
