I am very interested in getting into astro-photography, but am too new to the field in general to know what I should be looking for. I want to be able to take very long exposure (hours?) images of not just stars, but deep space objects too if possible. I am very computer-literate (I'm a software developer, self employed), and I know part of getting that quality of image involves processing the images after. I have Adobe Photoshop, but am unfamiliar with what this "processing" entails. I've heard talk of combining multiple shorter-exposure images, taking red, green, and blue filtered exposures and combining them, etc.
Any information any of you could provide to help get me started in the field of astro-photography would be well appreciated. Thanks!
