A 360° ground to zenith panorama of the Mt. Edith Cavell area from the Trail of the Glacier pathway, at the footbridge crossing Cavell Creek. I shot this at twilight, just after sunset. It is a stitch, with PTGui software, of 8 segments at 45° spacings with the 15mm full-frame fish-eye lens and Canon 6D. Each was 0.4 seconds at ISO 100 and f/4. (I should have stopped down some more!)

The Northern Lights shot at the old Larson Ranch site in the Frenchman Valley at Grasslands National Park, Saskatchewan, August 27/28, 2014. The pioneer cabin was the home of the legendary western author and movie star Will James, born Ernest Dufault in Quebec. He lived in this cabin when he worked the ranches in the area. The aurora was excellent this night. This is a single 1-minute exposures at ISO 2500 with the 15mm full-frame fish-eye lens at f/3.2 and the Canon 6D.

A 360° fish-eye panorama of the evening sky, January 16, 2015, showing the Zodiacal Light rising out of the western sky and last vestiges of twilight, and the Milky Way across the sky in the east. Comet Lovejoy (C/2-14 Q2) near the Pleiades just left of centre at the top of the pyramid of light from the Zodiacal Light. A meteor appears below centre. This is a stitch of 8 segments, each taken with the 15mm lens and Canon 6D in portrait orientation, for 1 minute at ISO 3200 and f/2.8. Stitched with PTGui.

Horizon-to-zenith panorama of the northern winter sky, from Canis Major in the south just above the horizon to Cassiopeia past the zenith at the top of the frame. Capella is near the zenith above centre. The extra star at left is Mars, just 10 days past opposition, on Feb. 9, 2010, when it was just above the Beehive star cluster. Taken with Canon 5DMkII and Canon 15mm lens, at f/5 for stack of 3 exposures x 4.5 minutes each at ISO 800. Two exposures had frost on the lens, thus the big star haloes. Taken from southern Alberta, Canada.

A circumpolar star trail composite, shot at the old Larson Ranch site in the Frenchman Valley at Grasslands National Park, Saskatchewan, August 27/28, 2014. The pioneer cabin was the home of the legendary western author and movie star Will James, born Ernest Dufault in Quebec. He lived in this cabin when he worked the ranches in the area. The aurora was excellent this night. This is a stack of 20 1-minute exposures at ISO 2500 with the 15mm full-frame fish-eye lens at f/3.2 and the Canon 6D. The foreground and point-like stars are from the first frame in the series.

A session shooting deep-sky objects in the rural backyard in Alberta, on a chilly November night, November 8, 2018. I was using the Celestron 8 HD tube assembly on the Astro-Physics Mach One mount, and was shooting Messier 27 with the Canon 6 D MkII. I shot this image with the Sony a7III and Venus Optics 15mm lens at f/2 focused on the foreground.
