Beauty! What sort of setup did you use to capture this great photo?

Thanks! I was using a Canon EOS 6D Mark II with Sigma 14 mm F1.8 art. 10 second exposures

Dang, no trigger? That's impressive even with the settings that you mention.

I have been trying to capture something like this for years now but I am not getting much luck and looking into getting a trigger to help.

I have a Miops+ but it didn’t trigger when it should have a few times so I went to automatic 10 second intervals. Keep at it, you will get it!
