Ronan Hunt is a deep space astrophotographer living in Ireland. Here he battles inclement weather to observe deep space objects over many days and nights to present beautiful vistas of deep space galaxies and nebula. When not at home operating his telescope he also like to travel to dark sky locations around Ireland and abroad to shoot landscape astrophotography.
When not star gazing he'll be designing intricate structures or surfing.
