Astrophotography is a niche field within photography that involves capturing images of celestial objects in the night sky. By using extended exposure times, astrophotographers bring out details in faint celestial objects, revealing a side of the universe that is often hidden from the naked eye. I've been shooting my own ammeter astrophotography from my roof for five years, below are some of the images I am most proud of.
