How it started | How it's going

Almost OTD one year ago I started my journey down the astrophotography rabbit hole.

I took my first astronomical picture, the Andromeda galaxy (M31), with a stock DSLR, a zoom lens and a simple star tracker (Canon T7i, Canon 70-200mm f/4 and SW Star Adventurer, 176 x 60s). I was quite happy of the result and hooked into the hobby.

Fast forward one year and I shot the Andromeda galaxy again, this time with my latest process, techniques and equipment.

Photography of the Andromeda galaxy. Compared to the previous image, this image show more vibrant colours, sharper stars, detailed dust lanes in the spiral arms of the galaxy as well as red-pink and cyan spots from emission nebulae in the galaxy arms.
