 Well, I made it, a rather soggy D3 on my desk to prove it. Have found a wonderful location for star trails and mountain scenery. Not too far from home, should be reasonable low light pollution, although Sellafield isn't that far away...

The downside is it's very close to Seathwait, reputedly the wettest place in England with 3552mm to rainfall a year and 314.4mm in a single 24 Hr period. Compared with King's Lynn @ 382.6 mm per year average (https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/uk/kings-lynn/climate). Alicante 49.3 mm per year, according to the same source...

I have made some exposures and one set of 360ยบ panorama images to experiment with. It was raining persistently by that time so I just went for it, nothing spectacular but something to play with. One has to start somewhere! o.O

Photo's to follow.
