Just added a new link for Terrestrial Images.. Enjoy!
Welcome to my Astronomy Blog.. I have not been taking Deep Space Images for very long and decided to post a blog showing my progression in the Hobby. using a Meade LX200 F10 UHCT Scope. I have owned a telescope since 2009 and have been imaging since 2010. My shots are far from perfect, but I am happy with my progression.
I first started imaging using a Canon 350D digital camera and now am using a QHY8 CCD camera designed of Astro Photography. I hope to keep improving over time, but remain realistic with my expectations.
I have recently decided to expand into Lightning Photography. Difficult in Adelaide as we don’t get many storms here. However I have been able to get some nice shots. I now product and sell Lightning triggers that are available via this site or through E-Bay. Please click on my Lightning tab at the top of the page.
Please take the time to look around and I hope that some of the information will assist others new to the Hobby. This is not really a how to page but an example of what can be done with an LX200 10″ F10 Meade Telescope. If you are looking at starting out in Astrophotography I would suggest finding your local Astronomy club and learn from others. Another way is using an online forum. I use a great forum site called Ice In space and is a site for assistance in this hobby. You will find a link below in my links section.
Images will be added as I take them, and the site will grow over time. Enjoy!
