Love the composition, Paul. That hill is made for panos!  Looks like a glorious night.

The R8 seems to be doing you proud. Not only that but Canon seem to be pricing it to sell. Is the body as light as it looks ?

I like your ability to put together a pano and make it look like a smooth single shot.

I've just got back from Kelling and that trip was partially powered by vegan brownies ( Delish ). Oh, and a chunky Kit Kat or two. I'm not making a good job of the photos however !

The R8 is very compact and light.  Seems robust enough as well.  I've a tripod lens collar for the EOS - R lens adapter that works well for balance.

Hoping the R8 helps with detail in ambient foregrounds.

Cheers, Paul.
