Since 1996

Well come to my gallery. I am a Japanese astrophotographer. Although my observatory is located in downtown Tokyo, I was able to capture deep sky images thanks to the great dynamic range of my 16-bit CCD camera and new image processing technology. Since 1990, most of these photos have been published in various astronomy magazines. These works were mainly taken using a 31cm (12 inch) Newtonian at home, but some were taken with a 20cm telescope (C8) carried to Australia and New Zealand.
Nowadays, times have changed, and it is now possible to take pictures using telescopes located overseas using remote control. I started remote astronomical photography in 2023, so I decided to completely revise this page and mainly introduce images taken remotely.
