Artist Statement:

In my astrophotography, I aim to capture the hidden beauty of the cosmos, unveiling the unseen splendor not apparent to the naked eye. Photography, for me, is a tangible expression of reverence and awe for the Creator, whom I call God. I seek to inspire and educate others, inviting them to experience the transcendence I have found in the grandeur of the night sky.
