Astrophotography

Data capturing, Post-Processing
As an individual with a lifelong fascination for the stars, capturing their beauty through photography has become a true passion of mine. From the moment I captured my first blurry image of the night sky, I knew that this would be a journey of learning and growth. Through this journey, I have gained valuable experience in building complete telescope rigs, processing and editing data, and creating stunning images.
To achieve the highest image quality and minimize noise, I use high-quality astronomy cameras that feature black and white sensors. To produce my images, I combine the data collected through a range of filters, including Hydrogen (Ha), Sulfur (Sii), Oxygen (Oiii), Red (R), Green (G), and Blue (B). By mapping the Ha, Sii, and Oiii filters to their corresponding RGB layers, I can create stunning, vivid colorways that truly capture the beauty of the night sky. I hope that others will share in my passion and appreciation for these awe-inspiring celestial wonders.
