Doing astrophotography since 2016.

Starting with DSLR and standard camera lenses, I acquired my first telescope in 2020.

All photos taken in rural Upper Austria. My standard site is approx. 650m above sea level and has a SQM of 21.66 mag/arc sec2. As an alternative, a mountain site 1.5 hours drive from my home at 970m elevation and with a SQM of 21.89 mag/arc sec2 can be used.

Nikon D750 (2)

Skywatcher Esprit 100/550
