Welcome to the astrophotography corner of my personal web site.
Here you'll find my photos of astronomical objects ranging from
nearby subjects such as meteors, the moon, planets, and the sun,
to distant objects such as gas and dust clouds and star clusters
inside our galaxy, to galaxies outside our own Milky Way galaxy.
My special interests are wide-field photos (as opposed to highly
magnified views such as from the Hubble telescope), and especially
of challenging transient targets such as meteors, comets, and eclipses.
