Astrophotography is what finally got me into photography, an unusual route I know.
I saw a used Celestron Powerseeker 127EQ telescope going for a good price online, and decided why the hell not? I had always fancied owning a telescope, and it was cheap enough that if I didn’t get the use out of it, it wouldn’t be a great loss. I even joked that I would probably use it once and then it would make a rather nice - if not large - ornament.
Little did I know the rabbit hole it would send me down!
