In this episode, I interview Jonathon Eggleston.  

We talk about how he got into the hobby, his gear, some techniques and processes  and much more. A relative "newbie" to the hobby, Jonathon shares his experience going from a total beginner to an accomplished astrophotographer with his own YouTube Channel with lots of great tutorials about taking photos of the wonders of the universe.  We definitely had a fun discussion and touched on lots of interesting topics.
