About this Site

This site focuses primarily on our endeavors in astrophotography– gear, process, software, and, of course, targets & images. We reserve the right to delve into other topcs that are loosely related to astrophotography– If we have to pack it into the car for a night observing then it is fair game. Posts will be tagged appropriately so readers don’t have to suffer through topics they aren’t interested in.

Getting Around

This site has a pretty simple layout - it’s all static thanks to jekyll, and should be fairly responsive. At the top you see a main navigation bar. The top left corner has the site title which will always get you back to the root level. Navigation is broken up into “posts” and “notes”.

Posts are like journal entries, happening at a point in time. They will contain tags, which tell you the main topic. I don’t have the list of tags yet, but you can be sure that astrophotography and image will be in the mix. You can find posts by either date or by tag.

Notes, on the other hand, are more “timeless”. These might be tutorials or little one-offs. Full disclosure here - I won’t know what goes where until I actually put up some content, but I promise that I will update this doc when I do. Unless I forget.

Minutia

For hosting we leverage GitHub Pages and Jekyll, and use a somewhat tweaked version of the minimal-mistakes theme, with a dark color palette.
