Canon 70-200mm f4L IS first light

Hi all
Been all over the place recently re: gear and what I want to do/pursue.
I've tried to get the "best of both worlds" in terms of a daytime v's astro lens setup.

Now I have Canon 24-70mm f2.8L and 70-200mm f4L IS lenses. (1.4x extender on the way)

This is the first light for the 70-200mm lens
Unsure about the 24-70mm in terms of astro work - but for terrestrial stuff, if you give that lens the right amount of light it absolutely shines!

18x5min exposures (90 mins), iso 1600, f4, minimal cropping.

All comments welcomed - excuse the core burnout, no short exps done.

Doug
