Description

First light with a Samyang 135mm F2 lens. A tracked one minute exposure at F2.8 with a Canon 5D mkII at ISO 1600. Slight sharpening and gradient removal, otherwise straight out of the camera. No cropping with this full frame sensor. Impressed with the image quality with the new lens. The night had slight haze present which bloats stars a bit. Leyburn, Queensland.
