Could you tell me the settings used for that first pic? The Milky Way had been on my todo list for ages, not managed it yet

Settings were F3.5 - ISO 1600 - 72 sec exp taken with a Nikon D7000 and Tamron 10 - 24 lens at 10mm.

Good Luck hope you get the capture your after.

Thanks.

Good shots Anton and a fine use of the ruined church to anchor the foreground!
