Racing FAI 2.5cc control line team racers in the late 50's, motor bikes, Crossbow shooting target and field. Photography ,target and field archery with the bow , have all been passions of mine but none so long lived as astronomy, which has been an interest since the first Sky at Night program. After building my first scopes in 1970 , I did a lot of film lunar and planetary imaging during that decade.

After many years of visual astronomy and aging eyesight, Digital cameras and webcams revitalised my photographic interest late in 2003 and I became a born again planetary imager. The on-screen images revealing more to me on planets that I ever saw through an eyepiece. The pages on this site are some of the results of the last two years work.
