Anthony Robinson ran the Smartphone Astrophotographer of the Year competition — the only competition of its kind.

He reviewed hundreds of real entries from phone shooters around the world.

His finding: the best shots didn't come from the most expensive phones. They came from people who knew a simple, repeatable set of techniques.

This course is those techniques, condensed into 25 short lessons.

That's when I noticed a pattern: the best shots weren't taken with the most expensive phones.

Questions?

Who is this course for?

It is suitable for complete beginners to photography of any kind. No prior knowledge or experience is required.

If you are already an experienced photographer, this will open up opportunities to shoot without needing to carry around your gear.

Do I need any specific equipment or software?

You will need a smartphone (obviously) but it doesn’t have to be any specific model or even be that modern. The principles should work for any modern smartphone camera. You will see photos in the course taken with very old phones.

A tripod is recommended but you can start without one.

If you already own a regular photography tripod you can use that, if not we recommend a budget option in the course for less than $13.

All apps used in the course are available for free and work for all phones, including iOS and Android.

What's the refund policy?

You can request a refund within 30 days of purchase with no questions asked.

Just email products@skiesandscopes.com using the email address you used to buy it and request the refund and it will be issued asap.

Anything else, just ask contact@skiesandscopes.com
