Astrophotography Gear
Zenithstar 81 APO Refractor telescope with a Flat III Field Flattener (total focal length of around 450mm)
Heq5 Mount and Tripod
Canon 6D with a William optics SCT Multispectral Filter
Each astrophoto here that you can see has around 3 hours of total exposure time. This means that I took the 2-3 minutes subs (exposures) and stacked then together to reduce noise in the image and pull out faint details. The 3 hours means that if you added up the total amount of exposures and multiplied it by 2-3 minutes, you would get around 3 hours.

3D Modeling/Animation Software
I mainly use Blender for most modeling and animation, it is a free software that anyone can use with a little patience and practice
I have also started to try out Maya, which is one of the most used 3d animation software in the industry. I was able to get it for free because I am a student
Another software I am trying out is Houdini, which is really good for what most people consider VFX (Explosions, collisions, etc..) I was able to get a non-commercial license for free.
I Redner everything on my home computer, which can take anywhere from 15-30 minutes for images and up to around 3-5 days for short 30 second animations.
*A disclaimer: Even though I have said that all of this software I got for free, they are extremely inestive on computers and may not be able to be used on an everyday workstation. All of these software crash constantly on my computer even though I have spent a decent amount of money on very good components for my computer. So if you do wish to use some of these software persistently, you may need to spend a pretty penny on some new pc hardware.

General Photography
These are just pictures that I have taken over the years using anywhere from one of my old android phones to the Canon 6D that I commonly use now
