Author, Tony Rowell Presents Sierra Starlight
The Friends of the Library is very excited to host Tony Rowell, son of wilderness photographer Galen Rowell, who will present his new book, Sierra Starlight. Tony has assembled an ambitious collection of nightscape photographs interspersed with facts and reflections on the landscape, as well as anecdotes about how some of his most awe-inspiring shots were captured. Tony will share his photos and talk about his experiences trekking through the Sierra Nevada and compiling this photo journal. Tony’s award-winning astrophotography has been published in books, calendars, and magazines, as well as exhibited all across California, and his astro time-lapse videos have been featured on the National Geographic Channel and NASA’s website. He is enthusiastic about discussing his love of astrophotography and the Sierra landscape with communities of readers, photographers, and nature-lovers who share in these passions. Books and photographs will be for sale. This event is free and open to all.
