Thanks guys! [emoji4]
I have printed quite a few things as gifts for friends and family. Happy to say, they’ve gone down really well.
I did a 2022 Calendar of images captured in lockdown, themed as “Locked in Space” (groan)
My favourite print medium is Acrylic Prints, they bring out the colour and depth really well.
The actual capture time of my images is generally somewhere between 1.5 - 4 hours.

Here’s an example of my recent M42 Orion Nebula printed onto the back of an Acrylic block.
It’s not ‘gallery’ standard (that would be be a photographic print sandwiched in Acrylic) but it’s pretty good for the money. RRP is around £94 but can be had for around £64.

Those Samyang lenses also go under the name of Rokinon so worth keeping an eye on both in the clasifieds.
You had a go at the milkyway core yet? Need a decent foreground for that I think but some of those you see online are amazing.
Don't even need need hours of data either it seems. Half hour to an hour of say 2min exposures seems to give excellent results. Obv a nice wide angled lense seems best.

I’m planning on having a go in late May, with the portable setup on a trip to Somerset.
The Milky Way shots are generally done as a composite of a foreground and milky way capture, as the foreground blurs due to the tracking over time.
If I get any clear skies, I’ll definitely be having a go. Will probably try to get a widefield mosaic using the 14mm with both RGB and Hydrogen Alpha/Oxygen III filter composite.
It’s Galaxy Season now though, and I’m itching for a bigger to scope for capturing those puppies. [emoji4][emoji13]
