A set of short exposures digitally combined produces an hour’s worth long exposure, that reveals the diurnal motion of the stars due to the Earth’s rotation and creates the beautiful star trails over the small church on top of a hill in the countryside. The pivot point in the North Hemisphere is the star Polaris at the end of the Little Dipper asterism, where the projection of the earth’s axis on the celestial sphere is currently pointing.
Thanks to everyone for visiting my photos and the kind comments, wishing all health and clear skies!
