It starts right from the beginning. Choosing the right equipment, or the equipment that is right for you, depending on what you want to do and what you want to achieve. There is a learning curve and it takes a lot of time and a lot of practice, patience, good weather conditions, a lot of thermo clothing underneath your extra warm coat, and don't be stingy on that last 30 Dollar pair of gloves! You will regret it.

Nebulae, those cosmic clouds of dust and gas, reveal their radiant beauty yearly, with the Orion Nebula and the Lagoon Nebula being popular favorites. Jupiter, with its striking Great Red Spot, and Saturn, with its majestic rings, offer breathtaking panoramas for astrophotographers.
