Welcome to my new Website/Weblog dedicated to my passion for astronomy and cosmology.

I will be putting up pictures of my telescope and space views in the near future. The telescope I own is an 8" Newtonian Reflector on a Dobsonian mount, made by the very respected American telescope company, Celestron.

For those that know me probably know me as a composer and having my own Music Publishing firm, Devilish Publishing. I have always had a passion for Astronomy but it is not until recently that I have begun to take it as a more serious hobby.

I live in quiet part of Manchester, well away from the city centre with my wife, Naomi and our daughter, Laura. I play Soprano Cornet for Eccles Borough Band and among my many hobbies, cooking also features up there.

The website dedicated to my musical activities is http://www.devilishpublishing.com/jamesmcfadyen
