Nice!

Seems like the D850 RAW files really can handle big exposure adjustments well!

Thank you,
I am shocked by the ability of the D850 for recovering shadows, while I was expecting a bit more in terms of high ISO performance.
I will soon upload another one with examples made with ISO and SS ramping to compare the results

Has any of you experience of day to night time lapses ramping aperture?
I know that it is generally suggested to avoid it, because of changes in depth of field, but if there is nothing in the foreground, I am finding that a couple of stops of aperture ramping can give very good results.
Of course to be used together with a bit of ISO and maybe shutter speed ramping.
Any thoughts?

Sure, and even with something in the foreground it can give an interesting rack focus-like effect, drawing your eye into the distance as the aperture opens up (could look choppy if the steps are too big however, best with a manual aperture lens and a rack focus motor). Useful when you want to maintain long shutter speeds.

Yes, I perfectly agree. In many cases for me ramping aperture gives excellent results.
I am currently doing some tests using a little bit of each: ramping ISO, SS and aperture, each by a couple of stops. So far the results are good
