Josh Dury has been fascinated by the night sky since he was young. At seven, he loved watching the animated series Biker Mice from Mars (and programs like The Sky at Night) and soon set about finding ways to view Mars himself.
Josh initially used CCD cameras for planetary imaging but later transitioned to landscape astrophotography due to the lower cost and improved technology that allowed him to capture the night sky. His love of astrophotography comes from his love of astronomy, and the idea that looking up at the night sky makes our problems feel small, rather than us.
