Book Reviews of CCD Astrophotography: High-Quality Imaging from the Suburbs (Patrick Moore's Practical Astronomy Series)
Book Review: Easy as Baking a Cake
Summary: 5 Stars
I found Adam's book provides a clear, proven recipe for obtaining high quality astrophotographs from your backyard with modern technology and equipment readily available to the hobbyist. I am returning to the hobby after 35 years. When I left, I was taking picures on 35mm film and processing it in my own darkroom. It seemed that no matter how hard you worked at it, there was a finite limit to the quality of photos you could obtain. The draw on my return to backyard astronomy and astrophotography is the technology leap in the interim. Mr. Stuart cuts to the chase and has helped bridged that gap for me.
