“In this talk Stephen will take us on a tour of the Clouds of Magellan and discuss many of the interesting objects that are found therein. Using his own images taken from his observatory in Himatangi Beach he will explain why both the Large and the Small Clouds are a treasure trove for the observer, the amateur astrophotographer and the scientist alike.”
