My Equipment
Astrophotography is an art that relies on the tools at your disposal and the locations you choose. In my case, I've discovered that the wonders of deep sky astrophotography can be captured right from the comfort of my backyard. Armed with two trusty rigs, I embark on a cosmic journey, capturing breathtaking images of the universe's mysteries. Join me as I share the gear and techniques that allow me to unlock the beauty of the night sky, all from the convenience of my own backyard.
Get ready to witness the captivating results of my backyard astrophotography adventures!
