Gallery of Astrophotographers at Wired
You know I try and feature great amateur astrophotographers here on Universe Today. Wired Magazine tapped into this, and had me write a feature article for their website, highlighting some of my favourite astrophotographers and their impressive gear. The article highlights 11 photographers, gives you a breakdown of the equipment they use, and the results of their work. I had a lot of fun putting it together, and I’ve got to say, I’m more than a little tempted to join the hobby too.

If you’ve got a website or blog, I’d really appreciate a link to the story. Let’s get the word out about this cool hobby.
