As far as practical astronomy is concerned, self taught thanks to the masses of people here on IIS who've answered hundreds of my questions and helped me go from a total newbie to the point I'm at now..

I've done a few short courses in photography which gave me the basics, i was then searching the net for 'long focal length photography' and found a few astrophoto's here I am nearly 2 years, and 5000+ posts later..

As far as physics/cosmology etc. are concerned. I'm currently studying Physics/Astrophysics at uni... I know jobs in this field are scarce, I would love a job in this field, however at this stage I'm more into it for the passion than the pay off.. If I get a job from it, great, if not, I still know a lot about the universe that average joe blow doesn't...
