I'm Alex, an amateur 37-year-old photographer. I love stories and I love telling them using my pictures. During my long sickness this year (not covid) I had very little time to shoot. I only made a few shots this year and mostly edited them in the hospital to kill some time. The good thing is I had a lot of time to improve some older shots of mine, and here is the result that I’d like to share with all of you, Pandas!

One thing that I've learned through my journey as a photographer is the importance of patience. Star photography, in particular, requires a lot of patience. You need to wait for the right conditions, the right moment, and the right light to capture the perfect shot. But it's not just about patience in the moment of taking the photo, it's about patience in the editing process as well. Sometimes, it takes hours, even days, to edit a single photograph to get it just right. But the end result is always worth it.

    I also believe that photography is a great way to connect with nature and the world around us. When I'm out in the middle of nowhere, under the stars, I feel a sense of peace and tranquility that's hard to find in everyday life. It's a reminder to slow down and take in the beauty of the world, even when it seems like everything is moving too fast.

    Another thing that I've come to appreciate is the power of community. As an amateur photographer, I've been able to connect with other photographers, both online and offline, who have helped me grow and improve as a photographer. They've shared their knowledge and experience with me, and I've been able to do the same for others. It's amazing how much you can learn from other people who share your passion.

    In conclusion, I'm glad that I've been able to share my passion for photography with all of you, Pandas! I hope that my pictures have inspired you to look at the world a little differently and to see the beauty in the everyday. I'll continue to take and share my photographs, and I can't wait to see where this journey takes me next.

    Finally one that actually looks like something I might see for myself lol. Your photography is amazing and I have no idea how you do it but I wish it was possible to see this kind of detail in the sky with the naked eye. I mean the detail that goes into most of your shots! They are so beautiful and magical, like seeing outer space superimposed on the night sky.

    Ahh, I thought long exposure might be an element of the photography! But still not sure how you're capturing that level of sky detail with all the light pollution of windows, cars, lights in trees etc.! Very clever & unique.
