DAYTON, Ohio (WDTN) — Astrophotography will be on display in Centerville throughout July.
The city announced that a new exhibit home to the work of Dudley Fields, Dr. Matthew Lopper and Dr. Brian Kent will be available to enjoy at the Centerville Art Gallery inside the lobby of the police department.
The exhibit will display 42 prints of eclipses, planets, comets, galaxies, nebulae, the sun and the moon.
“This exhibit offers a unique glimpse into the universe with over 90 percent of the photographs taken in Greene and Montgomery Counties,” said a city spokesperson.
Fields became fixated on the stars in 1957, after receiving his first telescope. Meanwhile, Dr. Lopper, a professor at the University of Dayton, developed a passion for astronomy after witnessing Haley’s Comet in 1986.
Dr. Kent always held an interest for outer space, but began taking pictures of the sky after retiring from his career as an electrical engineer.
