A blend of 50 non-tracked 6s exposures and 15 darks, taken in the Elqui Valley, in Chile. My first real try at astrophotography, with sort of suboptimal gear (7D2, 24-70 f/4). The cropping, 64/27, has been chosen to emphasize the shapes of the Milky Way.
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.

One of the best places on the planet to view the stars. The Milky Way is absolutely breathtaking from there, and you have captured that. Just look at those dust clouds! Fantastic! You should treat yourself to a little celebratory pisco sour to mark the occasion.
Nice composition, crazy amount of stars in this frame is awesome...
