Hi All,
Had another go at the Milky Way using a Nikon ED 19-55mm Lens with better results, this is a magic subject but Focus is always a problem with the Lens at 18mm at night, still it seemd to work this time.

3 x 4 Min. at ISO800, DF removed, guided- Canon 300D (modded) Nikon ED Lens.

cheers....Jim

Very nice Jim!

How come one star with just two diffraction spikes?

Top images Jim, the cloud itself is so well defined.

Very nice indeed.

Hi All,
Thanks for all the comments, and Al I cant really say why the bright Stars have two diffraction spikes as there are no supports in the Lens, any ideas ??.


cheers....Jim
