Interesting night photographing the milky way, thwarted by clouds to the south (obscuring the galactic center) and some insane laser show(?) shooting across the night sky from parts unknown to the east.

Nine 20 second shots (f 2.4, ISO 3200) stacked in Sequator Irix 15 mm

Rainbow on the prairie the following day Irix 15 mm

Wonderful images here mate, congrats!

I've been using the IRIX ND 1000 filter the other evening to achieve car lights effects.

And this other image is from a trip a couple months ago, I wish I had the polarizer back then

The photos in this club really show this lens off well.

Two views of the Milky Way taken with IRIX 15mm f2.4 Blackstone and K1 using Astrotracer. They were taken about 15 kilometres north of Gunnedah in northern NSW, Australia.

Both images are single exposures of 40 secs @ f3.2 and ISO1600. There was a little bit of light painting in the first frame to bring out the overhead power lines. Miscellaneous glows and trails at ground level are from vehicles travelling along the highway nearby.

Mars can be seen just above the trees in this view to the East.

K1 Irix 15mm again, this time with some light painting of the foreground
