To fully enjoy my hobby of [[Astrophotography|atrophotography]], I leverage premium CCD imaging platforms and research grade telescopes, located under dark and clean skies.  Theses systems are tuned and maintained by [http://www.itelescope.net itelescope.net], and give me the freedom to access the skies from three continents, and access my data for post-processing.

Listed below are the telescopes currently in operation.

These telescopes also allow me to upload directly to [http://www.aavso.org/ The American Association of Variable Star Observers] and conduct online photometric analysis of variable stars, leveraging VPHOT.

To capture the objects I shoot in the night's sky, I leverage an array of premium CCD imaging platforms and professional grade telescopes through itelescope.net. Located on three continents, their equipment is highly tuned and maintained, allowing anyone to capture professional grade imaging. I leverage Starry Night Pro Plus to locate objects I wish to capture, access the itelescope platforms to conduct imaging, download my FITS digital files, and post process using CCDStack and Adobe Photoshop.

These telescopes also allow me to upload directly to The American Association of Variable Star Observers and conduct online photometric analysis of variable stars, leveraging VPHOT.
