Teri Smoot

Teri lives in Placerville a small city that is about halfway between Sacramento California and Lake Tahoe in the Sierra foothills.  She is a retired aerospace engineer and is a docent at the Cameron Park Rotary Observatory where she enjoys showing the people of Northern California the sights in the skies.

Teri has been involved in amateur astronomy for many, many years but only got very active after she and her husband retired a few years ago.  She has done a large amount of imaging using a DSLR and is now moving into remote imaging with CCD’s.

When not imaging, Teri is a duplicate bridge player and enjoys travelling.
