About Deep Space Imagineers (AKA Space Madness)

This group is a repository and discussion group for light art photographs, photograms, refractographs, etc., that invoke a sense of real or imagined space phenomena. Basically anything that might be seen through a telescope, including false color imagery like that produced by Chandra/Hubble and a host of others.

This is not a group for photographs of actual space phenomena, there are other groups for real space photography. Acceptable images are those that are created in-camera. Typical "darkroom" editing is allowed. However, major/heavy editing and use of software programs (such as Fractalius/Apophysis, etc.) to manipulate light art geometries and produce spacey imagery is not allowed...there are already groups for that, too.

Here are some other groups that might interest you:
