About Me

Like many others in this field, my journey began with visual astronomy. In 2019, with little equipment knowledge but great curiosity, I bought my first telescope and pointed it toward the night sky. Seeing Saturn’s rings, Jupiter, and the Moon up close was an unforgettable experience that reignited my long-standing interest in astronomy and cosmology, and ultimately led me into astrophotography.

 

Though my academic background is in Psychology (BA and MSc), my interest in astronomy and cosmology has resurfaced strongly in recent years. Astrophotography has become both a creative and scientific outlet, allowing me to explore the universe in a hands-on and deeply rewarding way.

 

This site is a collection of some of my work throughout the years, captured mainly from my apartment rooftop in Athens, as well as from darker skies whenever possible.

 

The primary goal of this site is simply to share some of the images I’ve taken—and to hopefully inspire a little wonder along the way! You can also find me on Instagram and Astrobin.
