Description

So Cal Astro Photo is a virtual meeting place for amateur astronomers and astrophotographers living in or visiting southern California.
Using this group, we can:
  • Enjoy and indulge in our astronomy and astrophotography hobbies
  • Get info on dark sky locations and weather
  • Ask equipment and/or processing questions
  • Set up mini star parties
  • Relay information and feedback about local events and retailers
  • Provide viewing, imaging, and sightseeing tips to each other and to those visiting the area
Southern California covers a huge expanse of deserts, mountains, and cities. The defining borders are: the Nevada and Arizona state lines to the east, the Mexican border to the south, the Pacific Ocean to the West, and, generally speaking, Santa Barbara and the southern edge of the Tehachapi Mountains to the north. Within this area, there are dozens of great dark sky locations that accommodate our shared hobby.
