The Earliest Light

About

This series of deep space photo (known as astrophotography) is about capturing the light itself, every photon of it. 

Shot mostly in the UK with a telescope, camera, and an equatorial sky tracker, Kasra captures some of the most iconic deep space targets that are hundreds, thousands, and even millions of light years away from us, photons that have travelled an enormous distance to reach his camera. These photographs are the product of a lengthy process, from intensive planning, travelling to remote places -away from light pollution- and multiple imaging nights, to process, calibrate and edit the data which can take days and even weeks. The biggest obstacle Kasra faces is the weather. There are many elements that must come together in order to have an ideal condition for astrophotography.
