I've always been fascinated by the moon. One of my personal friends was Gene Cernan, who was the last man to ever step on the moon. The skies in general have always fascinated me and I have two telescopes to explore it and always enjoyed the spectacular views I got during my 25 year career as an airline pilot.Editing
None at all.In my camera bag
Normally I shoot with a handheld Sony A9 II with a Sony 100-400 GM lensFeedback
Of course the best astro photos are going to be by using a camera attached to a good telescope.
