Fritz is an aerospace engineer and amateur Astrophotographer in central Florida. He has been fascinated by the wonders hidden in the night sky ever since his father first showed him what the moon looked like through a small telescope. It was at that point that he realized there are all of these amazing objects in plain view above us every day - just waiting there to be seen. He took up astrophotography when he was in high school back in 2005. This was the beginning of the digital camera revolution, but it hadn’t yet become affordable for amateur astronomy purposes. His first images were using a black and white film of the moon to get the most detail that he could. One thing led to another and Fritz quickly became immersed in the world of astrophotography where he strived to make his next image better than his last. Fast forward to 2019, he built his dream observatory in his backyard and has never looked back.
