This week, while on a business trip, I managed to find some free time and did a quick test of my new Viltrox 16 mm f/1.8 lens. I chose the night sky near the Koźlak windmill in Ostrzeszów, Poland as the subject.

The images show two faces of a December night:

  • in the west – the setting Milky Way and the constellation Cygnus,

  • in the southeast – Orion.

All frames were taken from a tripod. Unfortunately, I forgot to bring a lens heater on the trip, so a significant part of the session turned into a battle with condensation forming on the lens.

Data (the same for each frame):

  • light: 60 × 20 s, ISO 3200, f/2

  • dark: 30 × 20 s, ISO 3200

  • foreground: 1 × 60 s, ISO 800

  • processing: Sequator and Photoshop

Equipment:

  • camera: Sony A7R II

  • lens: Viltrox 16 mm f/1.8
