First of my African startrails. Samburu is north of the Equator, so the revolution is around North here. Had to shoot from the porch of our tent, as ya never knew what was lurking just yards away. In fact, the next morning, an elephant was chomping away at some greens between our tent and our next door neighbor. This is only about an hour's worth of star trails at 45mm focal length, to try and get through all the trees.
Someone on flickr had this beautiful picture of startrails.
After seeing how he did it, I immediately got up, went to a field behind my house as far away from any street light and set my trusty camera and tripod up. I used the wide angle 10-20 mm lens for this shot, set the focus to infinity and took about 10 shots with 30 second exposure each. Then with a program called Startrail, I stacked the images together and got this.
While it's no where close to that guy's picture, I'm quite pleased with it for a first try. I plan to redo this in the next few days. I also want to figure out what makes this type of picture interesting, what am I missing, what do you like about it? Any comments would be appreciated.
I'm quite surprised about the red hue, there was no lights close by, and I made sure to shoot away from the city. The lines passing through it are also a bit of an enigma to me. Anyone care to explain?
I did this time lapse video in my back yard hoping to catch the Northern Lights, as I did not see anything the previous two evenings. I just set up my camera in my backyard, but unfortunately, I did not catch anything.
A quick 12 minute foray into photographing startrails.
37 exposures @ approx 17 seconds each (12 mins total).
Better to come I hope.

Startrails
My first star trail. I'm not crazy about the lighting on the tree, but overall pretty happy with this as a first attempt. This was processed with startrails.exe and Lightroom. It is 17 exposures of 2 minutes at f2.8 and ISO 400 with a 17mm focal length on a 1.6 crop camera.
Thought I'd do a star trail at the Saltburn pier, again. Not sure if I like the people at the end.
This was longer, but after using my bag as a weight to stop my camera from flying away, it pulled the image down by a couple of mm, but it was too hard to align so I binned the images.
This is my first attempt at startrails photography. Was not entirely prepared for it, the memory card was not empty so was able to get only 20 minutes of trails.Suggestions and comments are welcome.

Otro intento de fotografia nocturna. Esta vez, apuntando a la estrella polar se ha aumentado la exposicion para poder ver los trazos de luz que las estrellas dejan al girar sobre la polar. Sin diferentes tomas, solo una de 16 minutos aproximadamente.

I think I needed to stabilise the tripod a bit, as there's a bit of a wiggle in the trails, not so noticable at the small size though. If the weather stays as good as it has been maybe I can make it up to the windmill and try again.
