Sorry..... should have included all that!
I used a K5ii and a DA 50-200mm lens. These were mounted on a Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer 2i with an equitorial wedge. This was then mounted on a tripod.
Galaxy Image - 6 x 2min exposures, 200mm, f11, iso1600
Orion Image - 5 x 2min exposure, 200mm, f9, iso800
All exposure stacking was done in Sequator and then PP in Photishop.

Cool, thanks for that. Earlier I viewed on the mobile, now on my monitor your pics viewed large are superb!
Well done.

Curious that I'll spend ages on a particular macro shot but I wouldn't have the patience for these. That patience clearly pays off. These are superb.
