If you have ever wondered why galaxies, nebulae, etc. have the shapes and colours that the all the astrophotos show. And if you have always wanted to venture into the world of astrophotography to photograph those objects yourself. Then, this is your podcast! Here we will talk, in a clear and easy way, about the science behind all those images taken with the big telescopes. This will helps us planning better our astrophotography sessions and get the maximum out of our astrophotography sessions. We will also talk about the equipment needed to enter the world of landscape and deep field astrophotography, processing techniques and workflows. Would you come with me to this amazing journey around the cosmos?

Playing detective with the Universe
Playing detective with the Universe
Imagine that you are a detective who suddenly hears a gunshot. However, you can not walk to the area from which the noise came to see exactly what just happened, how would you solve the case? With this premise today I start talking about the process that we have been following to disclose and understand the physics of the super interesting gamma ray bursts. At the end of the episode I also solve some of the questions that you have sent me during this week.

Guide to choose a telescope
Guide to choose a telescope
This week’s episode is aimed at those who are interested in buying your first telescope or upgrading to a bigger one. I explain the pros and cons of each of the types of telescopes, their prices, their problems… And of course, I also mention the mounts that we need to be able to do astrophotography. During the episode I mention some brands that I feel I can trust when choosing a telescope. These are: Skywatcher, Celestron, Meade, Orion, Vixen, Explore Scientific, William Optics, TS and Takahashi.

My workflow to photograph deep sky objects
My workflow to photograph deep sky objects
Galaxies and nebulae require long exposure times and need large amounts of images. This week I talk in detail about my workflow to make observe deep sky objects either with DSLRs and lenses or with more advanced tools such as telescopes and dedicated cameras. From the planning, to processing, I reveal all the steps and steps needed to get the final image that we were always wanting.

The science behind the first image ever of a black hole
The science behind the first image ever of a black hole
On April 10, 2019, the first image of a black hole taken with the Event Horizon telescope was published. This telescope uses a technique called interferometry to combine the observations of multiple observatories located throughout Earth. In this episode I describe the importance of this discovery within the world of astrophysics and physics in general and I cover in detail what information the image offers us.

Academia de Fotógrafos
Academia de Fotógrafos El podcast para los fotógrafos que quieren aprender técnica, monetizar su pasión y estar al día de todas las novedades de material en tiempo real. Updated
Fotografía en voz alta
Fotografía en voz alta Aquí no se habla de cámaras, ni de objetivos o trípodes y, ni muchos menos, de técnica. Este no es un podcast que te hará conseguir fotografías extremadamente nítidas, saturadas, unidas mediante capas y procesados con el panel tony kuyper. Aquí venimos a hablar de lo que no se toca porque como dice Tino Soriano: “Lo fundamental está en lo intangible”Vamos a tratar asuntos varios como lo trascendente de tus fotografías. ¿Te has planteado si tu fotografía ayuda a alguien? ¿Cuál es el mensaje de tu obra? ¿Has inventado algo? Hay muchas preguntas que deberíamos hacernos sobre nuestras fotografías y que, quizás, no nos hayamos hecho ninguna. Dicen que cultura no es saber mucho sino adaptarse a cada situación. José Benito Ruiz trabaja con el neófito y con el experto, con el joven y el anciano, con el que se obceca en la técnica y con el que busca lo transcendente en su obra. Se adapta a nosotros dependiendo quien esté enfrente convirtiéndose así en una persona camaleónica donante de conocimiento y sabiduría. En este podcast nos vamos a tomar un café hablando de cosas que todos los que tenemos una cámara necesitamos saber pero nadie nos lo dice. Confiamos y, lo vamos a hacer, en levantar una nueva conciencia y moral en nuestro trabajo fotográfico con el fin de que nuestras fotografías, pasen a tener un doble significado: lo estético y lo humanitario. Relájate y ponte a saborear “Fotografía en voz alta” Updated
Vivir de tu pasión, es posible

Generación 74
Generación 74 Un podcast de David Gámez donde trato de hablar sobre Psicología, que es mi profesión, aplicada a la fotografía que es mi pasión.El nombre del podcast surge por que cuando me platee hablar sobre estos temas tan solo quería hacerlo desde mi perspectiva personal de alguien que nació en el año 1974 en ningún caso pretendo hacer clases magistrales sobre ninguno de los temas a tratar, tan solo daros mi opinión y crearos la curiosidad para que profundices más en el tema y saques tus propias conclusiones.
