Welcome to Deep Sky Workflows!
My name is Jeremy Likness and DeepSkyWorkflows is the website I created to express and share my passion for astrophotography. From the hundreds of photographs I've taken using amateur equipment from my backyard to instructional materials and videos, my goal is to provide everything you need to appreciate astrophotography and, if you're interested, try it out on your own.
