Summary

Resident John Castillo told a Santa Fe Springs City meeting that he is an amateur astrophotographer and will exhibit his work at the city Artfest, describing a 20-hour composite image and plans to lead small instructional trips.
"I do astrophotography for a hobby. It's a real love for me," Castillo said, adding that the image was produced from "over 20 hours of image time" taken across several nights using red, green, blue and hydrogen-alpha filters.
Castillo said participating in Artfest gave him "an opportunity to think about future, maybe a business start, to do trips, to bring people that have no idea what astrophotography is," and invited attendees to visit his booth.
The remarks focused on Castillo's work and outreach plans; no formal city action was recorded on the topic during the meeting.
Castillo closed his brief presentation with a thank-you to the audience.
