Astrophotography: Capturing Light That Traveled Millions of Years

I’ve spent years photographing the night sky, and every image I take is a snapshot of ancient history—light that began its journey millions of years before hitting my camera sensor. From nebulae to distant galaxies, each photo is a blend of science, patience, and a bit of luck.
I’d love to hear from others who’ve tried deep-sky astrophotography: What’s your most memorable shot? What gear or processing tricks made the biggest difference for you? And for those curious, I’m happy to share my workflow and lessons learned about capturing and processing faint cosmic signals.
Recently bought the Celestron Origin, which dramatically reduces barrier to entry because it automates a lot of the manual work like image stacking. Output is not as stellar as a more bespoke workflow, but payoff is more immediate. https://www.celestron.com/products/celestron-origin-intellig...
I know that the celestron origin is getting a lot of positive reviews now and that smart telescopes are making astrophotography easier than ever to get into. I'm glad you are enjoying yourself and Celestron is an incredible brand of telescope. I am using the 130mm SLT telescope with an EQ mount and guiding and getting some fantastic results.
