I'M DAVID MAGRO
A NIGHT SKY LOVER
An Australian photographer blending art with science.
My interest in astro-photography first began growing up in Glen Innes watching meteors showers, eclipses and stars from the backyard.
Years later in 2012, I begun travelling around the world and I captured my first night sky photo in Switzerland.
I had just come from teaching children English in China and I was amazed by how many stars where visible outside the city.
FROM THAT NIGHT, I WAS HOOKED
I came back home to Australia and begun chasing the stars. I fell in love with being under the night sky again.

My background in science and science teaching has motivated me to teach photographers and enthusiasts the technical skills and my unique editing workflow. I have presented at events, photography clubs, schools and I have developed - The Masterclass - which I travelled around Australia teaching with astounding results from students.
