Honestly hit 500 hours of stacking deep sky photos and I'm kinda blown away

Tbh I was just messing around with my old DSLR and a barn door tracker like 3 years ago. Now I've got almost 500 hours logged on a real setup. Didn't even realize til I added up all my subs last night. That's like 20 straight days of staring at faint fuzzies. Still feel like a beginner though. Anyone else track total imaging time?

Nah. That's just time wasted on something that doesn't pay the bills.

Man, I feel you @kimblack. It's rough when you pour time into something and don't see a return on it.

Right? @ray613, I mean at this point I'm just calling it an expensive hobby with extra steps. I put three months into this side project and all I got was a headache and a lighter wallet. But hey, at least I can add 'professional time waster' to my resume (which nobody's gonna read anyway). Honestly, if the bills aren't getting paid, it's just a sad little science experiment that failed. I'm starting to think my time might be worth more than zero dollars an hour, but what do I know?
