Here are some tutorials to help you with your astrophotography projects based on things I've learned over the years.

I still have tons to learn and like to share things as I figure them out.

Background Removal with Gimp
Using the freeware package Gimp (the Gnu Image Manipulation Program) to remove backgrounds and enhance brightness in your stacked astrophotos.

DIY Dew Heater
After having problem with condensation building up on the corrector plate of my SCT, I decided to build my own 3 watt dew heater.

It's pretty simple with easily available parts and a few simple tools.
