After returning home to the splendid "dark skies" of Arizona, I looked up at the stars and found that the twelve-year-old astronomer had been reawakened.

Astrophotography is a whole different game in the process of "capturing light"! The synthesis of these two hobbies (astronomy and photography) will keep me busy for a lifetime. The best part of staring at, and photographing, the cosmos is that this is an infinite source of fuel to fire up inspiration!
