Milky Way, Crux, and Coalsack

Ok. The driving force for getting my K-30 was to get better photos of the Milky Way; I chose the Sigma 30 mm f/1.4 because I figured it would be good for getting better photos of the Milky Way; I got the O-GPS1 because of the astrotracer function, in order to get better photos of the Milky Way.

I haven't taken a photo of the Milky Way in some time. And I've never used all three of these bits of gear together.

Until tonight, which I think went rather well:
