“Have you ever wondered where to showcase your astrophotography images at full
resolution? Or where to get real feedback on how specific astrophotography gear
performs? Or to discuss your hobby with other astrophotographers?

Wonder no more. AstroBin is the answer.”

> Expert Photography



“AstroBin is by far the most accessible astrophotography image hosting platform
around. Regardless of shooting with a DSLR, mirrorless camera, a backyard
telescope, or a deep-space observatory, AstroBin is the place to be.”

> Shotkit




WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

 

“Salvatore has done a great service to the community by creating AstroBin and by
maintaining it for so long. I thank him for all of his efforts and everything
he's done to promote astrophotography.”

> John Hayes

“I have my images on a couple of other sites. However, AstroBin provides a
unique service. Considering all the money I've "invested" in this hobby, to have
the ability to host all my images including technical data and to check others’
images including their technical data without much work on my part is well worth
the subscription fee.”

> Tim N.

“I joined AstroBin almost since its inception. It is an excellent site with
imagers from all over the world which also makes it a great community. Salvatore
the owner of the site is hugely accommodating and makes changes and improvements
when requests are made and for a single person dealing with such a large
community he does an excellent job. I would despair if Astrobin were to shut
down as I don't know where I could host all my images.”

> Carole Pope

“AstroBin provides a rather unique resource for astrophotographers. Even if you
don't host there, it's a very valuable catalog and resource of astro images. On
top of that, there is the data sharing library where people can and have been
making their data available to the public, something ('m very interested in for
crow-sourced data and processing.”

> John Rista

“I joined astrobin before even owning a telescope, and my passion was instantly
sparked. Astrobin has helped me immensely in choosing the right equipment and
getting the most out of it.”

> Ross Fergusson

“As far as I am aware, AstroBin is 9 years young and the work of a
solo-programmer. This alone is remarkable! Today, the fully-fledged AstroBin
offers a most intuitive UI and has attracted countless nice people, some of them
new valuable friends though only online. Site moderation is permanently under
control while the moderator's response to suggestions is fast and most accurate.
Image upload and description is made easy as 1-2-3. The membership fee is very
reasonable and should be considered a reward for hard work thru many years.
Because of its wonderful community, AstroBin is the only 'social network' I am
using. Highly recommended also for cloud covered nights.”

> Robert Brenner

“I care about having a place to gather and share astrophotography images with
others.  See what they're imaging, with what equipment, how they're imaging, and
the results.



For that, AstroBin blows all other possibilities out of the water.  One way or
another, this is the place where the great astrophotography community gathers,
where beginners can learn what works, what equipment the experienced people
use.  How to frame a target artistically.  Flickr or personal websites don't do
that well, the information there is too scattered."

> Bob Z.

“Love AstroBin, I use it often to see what other people are imaging and what the
images look like, it is also a fantastic tool for use with Sequence Generator
Pro's Frame and Plate Solving tools.”

> Samara N.

“AstroBin is by far my favorite web site, and I don’t think you will find a more
comprehensive, well thought out, full featured or even better looking website
this far out in the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the galaxy.”

> Flemming K.
