The images in this collection were captured using portable astrophotography equipment. Various telescopes were used depending on the target, from wide-field refractors, ideal for large nebulae, and open star clusters to longer focal length reflectors suited for galaxies and globular clusters.
Dedicated astronomy cameras were paired with a selection of narrowband and broadband filters, which helped isolate specific wavelengths of light such as hydrogen-alpha, oxygen-III, and sulfur-II, revealing the hidden structures and colours of emission nebulae. Broadband filters were used to capture true colour representations of galaxies and star fields.
