I’ve pursued astrophotography since the mid-1980s, back in the days of manual guiding with a reticle eyepiece and a handheld joystick, and capturing images on gas hypersensitized film. I took a hiatus from the mid-90s until about ten years ago so I could devote myself to family and career. For the past several years I have returned to astrophotography with what some might call an unhealthy zeal.

I have also spent most of my life as landscape photographer, and approach to astrophotography is very similar to my approach to terrestrial photography. I currently operate four imaging scopes spanning a broad range of fields-of-view. After all, as a photographer I could never limit myself to just one focal length. My current scopes range from a field diameter of just 32 arcminutes with my 20” PlaneWave to almost 6.5° with a 4” Takahashi. I also rent two scopes in Australia from world renowned astrophotographer Martin Pugh. On top of that I regularly take my modified full spectrum DSLR and 18mm lens to remote sites to catch the night sky over dramatic landscapes.

Five years ago I dedicated myself to producing the highest quality astrophotography. I moved my U.S. scopes to Sierra Remote Observatories (SRO) so I could image every clear, moonless hour of the year at a truly dark site. Best of all I now operate them from the warmth of my home office. Nonetheless, I still head up there several times a year to troubleshoot, or just to tinker.

I hope you enjoy my images, and I will always welcome your constructive feedback.
