Charlie Hagen

Charlie Hagen is a 20-year-old Astrophotographer from Denver, Colorado. He is a student of Computer Science and an aspiring software engineer. Charlie developed a passion for astrophotography after photographing Comet NEOWISE in 2020. Specializing in deep sky imaging of nebulae and galaxies, Charlie uses his QHY268M to capture deep integrations of  both familiar and lesser-known celestial objects alike from his remote observatory in the Sonoran desert in Arizona.
