Matthew Jackson is an astrophotographer who recently opened an art gallery in Livingston, Montana. His gallery, called Montana Dark Sky Photography, features astrophotography exclusively. I chat with Matt in-person at his gallery to find out how he got started, about his pandemic road trip, and his dark sky advocacy. I also share some amazing places you should visit when you go to Livingston or Paradise Valley. See the link to all the mentioned locations in the links below.
