I am Thomas and live in Koblenz (Germany).
I discovered astrophotography in stages. Like many others, I had a small reflector as a child. However, I never went beyond observing the moon and the sun (with the appropriate filter) back then.
In 2019, I seized the opportunity and acquired a small refractor for my son (first the Carrera track, then the refractor). However, this telescope ended up collecting more dust than photons.
In 2020, the comet Neowise essentially marked the starting point for my new hobby with an extreme addictive factor. Over the course of a few months, I focused on photographing Mars, especially during opposition, using the small refractor and my DSLM.
To be able to return my son’s telescope, I naturally needed something of my own. Personally, I refer to what I then acquired as ‘solid entry-level equipment.’

The complete journey can be found on my blog. the "about me" page
