Imaged with a stock Canon 6D i and a 550mm f/5.5 refractor (Espirit 100) which would be similar to a 500mm L lens but with flat field. ~ 5.5 hours worth of exposures, mostly 180s but it is HDR to get the dust out and not blow out the super bright core of the nebula.
Just a few shots - not of the art but the building interior!
A stone shepherd's cabin with an orange roof beside a high-altitude lake in the province of Leon during an unexpected late spring snowfall.
I wanted to see how my 50 year old Canon FD 800mm f/5.6 s.s.c. would handle photographing both the Sun and the Moon.

I held a lighting workshop recently. Sterling was the model. I rarely shoot silhouettes but I wanted to incorporate that arch into a shot. Backlighting became an obvious choice.

wow thats nice well done
Spectacular. Love to know how to do this
I use ioptron’s CEM25p and IEQ45 Pro for tracking mounts. The CEM25p is like a SkyGuider on steroids but is still light weight and portable.
Thanks robert. Will look at it
I might write an article / guide on how I do it in the future, will let you know if I get it completed.
Please do. Do you have a website with info? I think you will find that there is a lot of interest in this.
If I make it will post here on Fstoppers : )
Already inquiring
I unique basic format would be great. Some of the videos and writing assume that people know what cem25p or - ieq45 is. Also taking darks and lights. I am sure this type of photography is relative easy although time consuming but it is hard to find out how to do it and knows what tools to buy etc
