Next September I'm heading out west and want to get some star trail shots at Arches National Park and the surrounding areas. I thought it might be time to do a few practice test shots. Here's the first attempt. This is about a half hours worth These are actually about fifty 30 second exposures piled on top of each other in Photoshop. I think it'll work better with no clouds in the sky. When I combined all the shots the clouds seem to form a kind of stepping pattern. This wouldn't happen in a single super long exposure, but from what I have read, really long exposures create a lot of noise in the digital image, hence the need for a bunch of smaller exposures. Hopefully, by the time I head out on the vaca, I'll have this all figured out! Btw, that weird line near the horizon was a plane.
