When you look through the eyepiece of a telescope, a few celestial objects are guaranteed to make you say ‘wow!’ – the moon with its mountains and craters, Saturn surrounded by rings, Jupiter showing off its stripes and Galilean moons.

But it’s not until you use a camera to create long exposures that the faint, deeper universe begins to truly reveal itself. And it does this in the most astonishing way. Galaxies, nebulas, comets, supernovas - all these appear in detail you might never have thought possible.

This is what drew me into astrophotography – an endless supply of ‘wow!’ moments delivered by photons of light, some of which have travelled for hundreds of millions of years to reach the sensor on my camera. Welcome to Earth photons. 

I am a London-based Fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society. My images are taken in the south of England, Canada’s Vancouver Island and most recently Texas where I have a remote telescope.

Here is some of my work...
