Web Site Of The Month
Pete's Page: Astronomical Photography And More
Serendipity: Sometimes you
accidentally find something wonderful. That's the case with this
Web Site of the Month. While researching astrophotography sites, I found
Pete's Page, which includes astronomical photography--digital
and film--along with much more. I was attracted to Pete's Page
because it is a site that celebrates photography instead of just selling
it. Webmaster Pete Augello has set up a homepage that features examples
of his outer space and earth bound travel photography. You won't
find any banners, ads, or sales pitches here. Instead, Augello uses
the site to share the images that he creates with other netizens along
with information on the tips and tools he uses to create each photograph.

· The Galapagos
Islands. This section of Pete's Page contains images from
his trip to these mythic islands. In addition to the photographs of native
wildlife that are typically seen from such expeditions, Augello has also
documented some of the sights and people of Ecuador. In addition to the
photographs, he's posted a diary of the nine-day trip including
commentary and observations about his journey. Anyone contemplating a
similar trip should read it. Augello made this trip with a tour group,
but when venturing out alone he was not afraid to ask questions when taking
photographs. |
