Just wondering if anyone is interested in heading up to Starfest, the big annual "star party" hosted by several local astronomy clubs (and considered one of the top ten star parties in the world).

Although geared toward stargazing, this would also be an excellent time to try out long time-exposure sky shots and such. Of course the amatuer astronomers that will be there will have their telescopes, and they're always happy let others have a peek through their instruments.

There is a $60 registration fee -- I realize that may seem high -- it includes admission to all of the evening talks and such.

(I know several of you are going to Torrance Barrens one week earlier, and you may be all "starred out"... still, I thought I'd ask.)

Ideally I'd like to head up on whichever night seems most likely to be clear, and either come back in the wee hours, or camp 1 night and come back the next day.

Cheers!
