I am an astronomy author and photographer. My ebook, How to Photograph and Process Nightscapes and Time-Lapses, is available through the Apple Books Store and as PDFs for all devices. For details see www.amazingsky.com/NightscapesBook

 

I am one of Canada’s best-known astronomy writers, particularly in my role as a former contributing editor to SkyNews magazine (until its closure in 2023). I also serve as a contributing editor to Sky & Telescope, writing frequent reviews of equipment and "how-to" articles.

 

My photos have been featured on Spaceweather.com, APOD Astronomy Picture of the Day, the Weather Channel, NBCNews.com, CBSNews.com, Time magazine, in National Geographic magazine, and in many other magazines and calendars.

 

I am a member of the exclusive The World at Night photography group (www.twanight.org)

 

Asteroid 78434 is named for me.
