New lens result!

For my birthday, went out and grabbed the Samyang 12mm f/2 lens for my Fijifilm X-Pro1. I'm VERY happy with the results!
66x15" exposures, ISO2000, f/2.4 (for sharpness). Minimal levels and curves shenanigans in Photoshop.

Wow! Surely that's not considered beginner astrophotography?

Given I've only been out 8 times, it's pretty beginner to me! Just grabbed my DSLR (which happened to be mirrorless when I purchased it while travelling overseas) and started. The only other investment has been the new lens - and I was so proud of the result I wanted to share to inspire people starting out that you can do it, too!
