Marvellous sight Dave. Like the framing and use of pano.

Make your life spectacular!

I like the mood and timeless quality of this view, Dave - it could have been taken this year or centuries past!

Cool effect of colors and the appearance of an arch, Dave.

Nicely worked pano-starscape here. I like the subdued illumination on the earthly elements as well.

This was taken with the Fuji Xt5 with a 14 mm Rokinon 2.8 lense using a Metabones speedbooster which made it effectively a 14mm FF view with a max 2.0 fstop. The images were 30 second exposures at a iso of 3200 and stopped down to an effective fstop of 2.8. DXO deep prime made a world of difference when converting the xtrans raw files. I have pretty much abandoned lightroom for conversion of these nightscape images. I have tried Topaz as well but I think there are fewer artifacts with the DXO product, at least for the nightscapes.
