I got into astrophotography through photography rather than astronomy. In 2013, I started experimenting with widefield Milky Way images using a DSLR and tripod. Those early nights under the stars got me hooked, and by 2017 I was using a telescope, equatorial mount, and dedicated astronomy camera to explore deep-sky imaging.
Over time, my setup has evolved, allowing me to capture celestial objects in more detail than I ever imagined when I started. No matter how much the gear changes or how many targets I photograph, the feeling of revealing something hidden in the night sky remains the same. Through my images, I hope to inspire others who are curious about astronomy, photography, or both — and to fill a few empty walls with a glimpse of the stars along the way.
