First ever attempt at Astrophotography. Tried a few different techniques with both a Fish Eye and Ultra Wide and this 4 x FA31 stitched photo. Four minutes for the bottom water shot and 20 second exposures for the stars. I realised when processing this that I could have open up the aperture another stop and used lower ISO.... Learn that for next time I guess.

Another 77 shot from tonight....getting them to arrange themself by height, then all to look straight ahead was harder then I thought it would be!

Yea, it's not too steep a learning curve It makes me appreciate the DA*16-50 even more. I must have gotten a great copy on both lenses.
