Finding Peace Beneath The Starry Skies

Welcome to Wolf Run Observatory – A home-based observatory located in Upper Pottsgrove, PA. This site chronicles my journey in astrophotography and electronically assisted astronomy.

I hope to share the experiences, lessons, and enjoyment I’ve gained from this hobby. This includes my equipment choices, upgrades, missteps, images and processing techniques. This isn’t a how-to site – there are plenty of excellent ones run by people far more experienced than I am. Instead, this is my journey… and maybe, in some way, it will become part of your journey.

Enjoy the journey – and feel free to let me know what you think. If you have your own observatory or story. I’d love to hear about it. Share a link!

My goal is to share my experiences, my failures, and my successes. This is not an easy hobby. It’s expensive, time-consuming, and full of letdowns. But when you capture a great image of a DSO, planet, or cluster, it makes all the letdowns seem as if they never happened.
