ASTRONOMY – RIGHT FROM A BACKYARD LIKE YOURS

This is a creative side project – which aims at taking at least 12 astrophotographies during 2024. I will bring you along with me, while I build my kit and take the images, and produce reviews of different parts of my kit. Hopefully, this will produce some fantastic images and some good stories.

About ME

My name is Thomas and I am an astrophysicist. I have been teaching Physics and Astronomy for more than a decade at High School level. In my time off I have been taking a lot of landscape photographs over the years, but I have found that I am missing taking pictures of the night sky.

BEHIND THE CAMERA

Thomas Amby

Astrophysicist

I am Thomas. I studied Astronomy at university and have been interested in the cosmos ever since I was a little boy. It is only recently that I have taken up the hobby of astrophotography.

MY MISSION

This website is all about documenting my process of photographing the beautiful cosmos and seeing how I can develop my skills of photography of the night sky during the entire process from capturing the night sky to the final image.
