Were you at a dark site for this?
All the gear with no idea
Seriously impressive! Was this using the accessory astrotracer or the integrated one in K1/K1.II?
I used the K1ii and DFA150-450 for this but have had equal success with the O-GPS1 on my K3 in the past. Stacking the images and using dark frames has made a huge difference to how the images end up and enables higher ISO settings for greater sensitivity.

This is amazing. I've wanted to get back into astro but haven't ever managed to pick myself up for it.
Were you at a dark site for this?
I am in Lanzarote so yes, dark skies. Not a lot of light pollution but there is some.

These are phenomenal,
You could probably do a blog / vlog on doing these, I'm sure it would be a huge success. And very much appreciated

This was 33 images stacked in Deep Sky Stacker. Each image was 10 seconds f5.6 ISO1600 @ 450mm also 10 darks were used to smooth out the noise.
