In memory of a dear

Hello and welcome to my
website......
Here on these pages you'll see
some of my images I've taken here in light polluted London and at Gravesend,
Kent, UK
I've been taking astro images
for only a few years now and its been a long learning curve to try to produce
images worthy of keeping. I've still have a awful lot to learn to get the best
from my kit but that's what I find fascinating and the challenge of the hobby.
This site isn't technical in any way, I just don't know enough about astronomy
to give technical details, but it's just dedicated to imaging the delights of
the skies.
As I get more images together -
weather permitting - I'll be posting them up here on the site. So do pop back
here from time to time and check out where I'll be posting new images.
Given the location I'm located
at DSO work is going to be limited to the easier targets but as filters become
available hopefully at reasonable prices there could be some 'harder' to image
targets posted up here.
There has been a major redesign
of this site with images now being played in a slideshow application. The old
"Whats New" page has gone and individual pages to Video Clips, ISS Passes and DSOs now appear as seperate links at the top of each
page. A revamp of the music page has been done with all new music by two of my
favourite bands: Pat Metheny Group and Supertramp.
Having recently got a QHY8
camera I'm now working on learning how to get the best from it and thanks to
Bern at Modern Astronomy (see links page) for his unending support and guidance.
Clear skies,
Roger.
