ABOUT ME

I, Siddardh Budamagunta, created this website to share my experiences as an Amateur Astronomer.  I am a 10th Grader living in NC, and I love Astronomy. Make no mistake, I am just an amateur that got started just a few years ago, and I am not here to give you detailed tutorials on how to take astrophotos.  Instead, I am just here to share with you my experiences, my failures, and my journey as an Astrophotographer.  Hopefully along the way, you'll learn something new.

​

Astrophotography and Astronomy are some of the most fun and eye opening hobbies that are out there, but they are also some of the hardest and frustrating.  Just like many of you, I live under the Bortle 7 skies of the suburbs, in a neighborhood where conditions for Astronomy are less than ideal.  I made this blog so that people that are just starting out, don't the make the same mistakes I made, and instead can learn from mine.
