Description

From our trip to Tenerife and La Gomera in June 2022.

Imaged from the Parador in Teide's caldera at 2100m+.

This is my first foray into wide field milky way photography with a star tracker.
Bit of a steep learning curve having to do everything manually but enjoyable at the same time.

Had to resort to pre processing in Sequator as I couldn't figure out how to do it easily in PI.
Sequator has a 'freeze' foreground feature which is useful for landscape shots.
If anyone has a suitable workflow in PI for landscape imaging then please let me know.

Sigma 18-35mm art f1.8 at 18mm and f2.8. Reasonably pleased with the lens after testing and rejecting
several others.
Canon 800Da at ISO1600. No calibration frames. Unguided but dithered by the Star Adventurer 2i.
