Recent Work
A selection of my latest images and a few favorites.
Thanks for stopping by. The purpose of this site is to showcase images I have made over the years and offer my best images for sale as limited edition fine art. When not photographing from my own observatory, I image remotely from other locations allowing for maximum sky time. Processing astrophotos is time intensive and filled with many arbitrary decisions before an image is completed. For this reason, the same data set in the hands of different astrophotographers will produce different looking images in the end. Therefore, the images displayed on this site are uniquely mine.
The majority of images shown here have been made since 2015 with older work displayed elsewhere. I had the pleasure of producing images taken under dark Australian skies in 2017 and am currently involved in an remote imaging project in the mountains of Chile. The skies in Chile are some of the best on the planet with ~320 clear nights a year.
Aside from traditional photographic prints, I offer a unique fine art option for my astrophotography. Chromaluxe metallic prints are the standard by which all other metal prints are measured. The pieces you receive are ready to hang, do not require a frame, and sport a contemporary look. My goal is to create images that are both timely and timeless with quality that will last for generations.
What are Chromaluxe Metal Prints?
Metal Prints represent a new art medium for preserving photos by infusing dyes directly into specially coated aluminum sheets. Because the image is infused into the surface and not on it, your images will take on an almost magical luminescence. The ultra-hard scratch-resistant surface is waterproof/weatherproof and can be easily cleaned. Prints come with a hanger that floats the print 1/2" off the wall when hung. If you are interested in an image not yet on my sales page give me a shout. Not every image makes it there for various reasons.
