Introduction
This wiki is for people in the Edmonton area to share information about astrophotography. Welcome!
Many of the authors here are also members of the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada, Edmonton Centre. Individuals write on their own behalf here and not as representatives of the RASC nor that of the Edmonton Centre of the RASC. For more information about the RASC and the Edmonton Centre see: Edmonton RASC Website.
Notice
I started seeing some automated spam here. For the moment, I have restricted edit access to registered users. I don't pretend that will make the spam go away, but it will take out at least one big hole. Please join us, and register an account, so that we can share in your knowledge!
Mailing List
There is a mailing list shared by users of this site. Interested people join the edm_astrophoto group at Yahoo! Groups.

Monthly Challenge
Starting December, 2009, the Astrophoto SIG would like to start a monthly challenge!
We hope that is a good start for basic areas of interest. We expect this to be somewhat self organizing. Professional conduct is of course expected, and if you plan to link to external commercial content which you have personal involvement in, please note your involvement on your user page (with a link and shameless plug, of course) so that we know where it is coming from.
