Hiya! Name's Cheyenne. New to Mastodon and QOTO. I'm a Physics student with a focus in Astronomy, currently researching a gravitationally-lensed galaxy. I'm interested in anyone else's research and scientific endeavours~

@Cheyenne Wonderful to have you here, looking forward to getting to know you. I have some of my astronomy photography displayed on wikipedia and i am kinda proud of that

@freemo It really is stunning work. Your shot is quite impressive. I have yet to dive into the world of astrophotography, but I continuously marvel at the work of others. You'd never know that was one of your first shots just by looking at it.
@Cheyenne It was on a 10K german equitorial tracking mount. Was my first semi-pro astro shot I took on my own equipment. I'm amazed at the resolution I got on the trapezium considering it was the first time I ever tried such a shot.
