Tone Mapping Workflow in Practice
Practical narrow band image processing, bring you own data. (Data must be in form of 16bit, stacked and calibrated, color channels) LRGB-data is welcome as well for advanced luminance processing workflow examples.

Image Processing with THELI
At the beginning of the workshop Mischa Schirmer will give a short and general introduction to the THELI data reduction software, based on a small demonstration run. Afterwards, participants have the opportunity to reduce their own images with THELI. The speaker and other experienced users will be available to assist with any problems. Participants must bring their own laptops with a working and up-to-date installation of THELI. Mischa will be available throughout the conference for further questions or help.
For all who do not already have a working THELI installation on their laptop, there will be a "THELI Installation Party" during Friday afternoon!
Speaker: Mischa Schirmer

The Art of Colouring the Deep Sky
This workshop shows how we perceive colours in the real world and how the colours could be perceived and gathered for the astronomical objects. Techniques for colour compositing using Photoshop (mainly) and balancing. Issues about narrowband colour rendering and techiques for including such data in RGB images. Techniques for colour enhancing and improving deepness perception (3D like). Considerations about perceived resolution and colour resolution. Considerations on LRGB and RGB differences and techniques for rendering. Final open discussion.
Speaker: Giovanni Paglioli

TWAN Landscape Astrophotography
Starting Earth and sky imaging is fast and easy, but for advanced landscape astrophotos there are challenges too. The success secret is to be "in the right place, at the right time". Even at full moon or a mostly cloudy night, when deep sky imaging is generally off, there are great chances for creative Earth and sky imaging. Techniques of night-time Photography and planning based on knowledge of skygazing are important elements. Besides weather, factors such as geographic location, altitude and temperature, local topography, and light pollution must be considered in preparing for a photo session.
The main topics of the workshop include: Basic of Earth and sky photography, guide to the best equipment, analog vs. digital, advantages and disadvantages in sky photography, secrets of landscape astrophotography, long-term projects in sky photography (planetary motions, Analemma), making digital startrails, making time-lapse videos of sky and creating panoramas and virtual realities of night sky photos.
Speaker: Babak A. Tafreshi
