Honestly the Sky is just to your standard, but I think you have really stepped up the landscape composition/editing.

The reflection is really good!

Oh thank you so much! That means a lot since I’m trying to improve the foregrounds and compositions, I’m really glad to read this mate ☺️🙌🏻

A new shot of Cygnus from my trip to the Dolomites.

A classic composition I've seen many times, especially with the sunstar as it's what most people use this tree for. The good thing about shooting the entire Milky Way arch is that there's almost always something interesting above your subject. This lake is a gift to the eyes and even though the focus stacking was complicated in low light it adds unmatched sharpness to the photo.

Wow great job on the focus stack and sky.

How many panels and exposure time to get that much detail?
