Hi all,
I'm glad to announce a PixInsight workshop that will take place at the
Tanque Verde Ranch in Tucson, Arizona, USA, on June 5th to 10th.
This is a newly designed, 6-day long combined workshop that will give the user a more flexible opportunity to learn image processing. On the weekend an introductory workshop to PixInsight and the basic image processing techniques will be offered for up to 40 people. Following this workshop, a 3-day intensive workshop will review more advanced techniques in a fully personalized learning experience for up to 12 people.
As all my other workshops, this workshop has been conceived with a special focus on the active participation of the attendees. Each registered participant will be provided with a personal account on our file servers, where he or she will be able to upload raw data that will be worked out during the workshop. On Sunday we will review a start-to-finish example based on user data, so it is strongly recommended to upload full data sets.
The intensive workshop will be an in-depth review of some more advanced techniques, as well as a longer start-to-finish example. The most interesting part of this workshop is when everyone works with his/her own images. This way, people learn how to apply the recently learnt techniques to their own photos. I will guide everyone in the particular processing steps to achieve an optimal result.
The topics covered will be, among others, the graphical user interface, elementary techniques of astronomical image processing, image delinearization and dynamic range compression, and narrowband imaging.
You can register only on the weekend workshop or the full 6-day workshop. For more information visit the below webpage:

See you in Tucson!
Vicent.
