Cone Nebula (NGC 2264)

Warren Keller Henize 70

Virginia, USA
Telescope:

“I began exploring the night
sky at the age of 15 years old
with an eight-inch Newtonian
during the 1960s. It wasn’t until
1998 that I got my first taste of
astroimaging with film, and in
2003 I switched to a CCD for
capturing the treasures of the
night sky. Artistic by nature, it’s
less about cosmology and more
about the thrill of the hunt for
the myriad beautiful shapes
and colours throughout the
universe. My astrophotography
tutorial business has given
thousands a quick start to
taking their own great photos.”
