Hi everyone,
My name is John Michael Bellisario or JM as my friends and family call me. I'm 33 and live in Tucson Arizona. Many of you are familiar with Tucson and I am sure some of you have visited here at one time or another. If you also live hear or have visited reach out! I would love to chat. One of my favorite things about this SM platform is that it truly is a global community, so for you on the other side of the world, Tucson is the only home of the beautiful saguaro cactus. This is the famed armed cactus made popular by the old western movies; probably due to the fact that many of the classics were filmed here at Old Tucson Studios. I studied at the University of Arizona and got my degree in Elementry school education and mathematics. I have been teaching elementry school for 8 yearns now but I am working on another degree with the hope of making a career change, I hope to get a job for Raytheon or another STEM company. Anyways, I would like to thank this wonderful community, especially everyone who has supported my account and provided helpful feedback. I am new to astrophotography and even newer to Astrobin. I imaged my first deep sky object exactly one year ago. it was awful, both blurry and noisy; but still I extreamly proud and excited that I could take a picture of something so far away. Needless to say, I was immediately hooked and I am sure like most of you, my hobby became an obsession. I have to say that I am so blessed to have such an amazing, patient, and supportive wife because this hobby is very addictive and both time consuming and EXSPENSIVE! lol. I feel like I have made some great progress in the last month, both is acquisition and in post editing. I welcome suggestions for my images and likewise I would love to share that which I have learned and provide feedback. I look forward to meeting many of you guys, Clear skies!
