If you wish to learn more about astrophotography, we provide introductory (or advanced) lessons on photographing the night sky. Here is a quick photo of the Eta Carinae nebula with a Canon Ra, taken through our LX 200 telescope.
We are stargazing from a stunning place on top of a hill on Ponatahi Road, 10 minutes from Martinborough. In this photo, you can see the Ponatahi Valley.
When the Moon is out you can see stunning features on it, craters and mountains and dark patches called 'mare'. We would love to visit the Moon in person but seeing it through the telescope is just as good.
The stars are very beautiful. From Star Safari, you can see the Milky Way very clearly. We operate from the world's 21st International Dark Sky Reserve. Here is the region of the Southern Cross, coalsack (dark patch) and Carina.
