Beautiful.. Where is the Crystal Coast? I'm interested in where on the planet you are shooting from...

The coast of North Carolina

It's lovely there! Sadly, I've not been, but I've seen pictures and I know people who visit.
I really enjoy your work, even though I hardly know the effort that goes into the final image
Thank You for Posting .. Perhaps you could educate those of us interested?

Love it here and don't miss the Michigan winters... It's a great hobby and can be frustrating at times.. You are always at the mercy of the weather and moon (added light pollution)..

I control everything with a small tablet and it's all on my home network. Once I get the scope/mount leveled and polar aligned I come in the house and control it all while watching TV, cooking or whatever. I get a preview of every image taken when the next shot starts..

Thank you the kind words..
