Southwest Road trip image #8
Dusk shot from Canyon Overlook Point at Zion. Car light trails are as planned but reflection of Pine Creek and yellow cotton trees along creeks are unexpected bonus.
Multi exposures for car light trails.

Southwest Road trip image #9
Lone corkscrew tree and milky way, Zion National Park
I don't usually shoot much of star photography but I had couple chances during my trip to South West in last November.
One of advantages using Canon TS-E lenses over Ultra wide lens for Technical camera (i.e. Rodie HR23 f5.6, I hope I can get it someday) is a speed. One full stop (f4-17mm) or stop an half (f3.5-24mm) faster lens help capturing stars with relatively lower ISO (6400 in here)/faster shutter speed (15 sec in here) to avoid star trails yet capturing tons of starts.

I have the Cambo setup with a Canon 24 TS-E but haven’t tried it for night sky yet. How does the 17 compare, especially coma and astigmatism in the corners?

I haven't made side by side comparison between 24mm and 17mm but I was reasonably happy with both. As you mentioned not as sharp as HR32/40/70 but made me happy to capture ultra wide-angle shots. Coma is visible at the corner of 17mm and I cropped to somewhere around 20mm range for most of my images. Still can get super wide view compare to any other options for Tech Camera.

Southwest Road trip image #12
Peek-a-Boo Slot Canyon, Grand Staircase-Escalante, Utah.
This part of canyon was very narrow (~20" or 50cm) and twisted, I needed my fellow photographer to pass down my gears from above. As you can see a footprint at canyon floor, it is barely wide enough to place a single foot.
I was very happy to have Canon TS-E 17mm via Cambo-Canon adapter, I couldn't capture this image without it.

Wonderful image Kinya. I don't recognize this angle, may I ask where is the shot from?
I love those badlands. Have spent a lot of time there, been coming there about two times a year through the past nine years. Grand Staircase is one of my favorite places.
Most of the badlands is sadly removed from the Monument by the Trump administration so it is now open for mining and off road vehicles.
First time I was there was in 2009 and then it was pristine but during the course of the years it has deteriorated a lot mainly due to tourist walking all over to take selfies and whatnot especially near the roads. But the backcountry is still pretty much untouched. I mostly walk in the washes in order to not leave footprints that will stay there for years.
This image was shot in 2013 I think. Don't have the info on my laptop.

White Pocket, Arizona
Arrived here after sunset and stayed only a few hours after an hour and half rough terrain 4x4 required drive.
Luckily, the moon (3rd day) was setting as aligned with the Milky Way, I heard it only happens several nights a year.
Another must return location to capture more.
