"On September 30, the digital stack of 240 sequential exposures made with a camera fixed to a tripod at an Everest Base Camp captured the sheer north face of the Himalayan mountain and foreground illuminated by bright moonlight. Taken over 1.5 hours, the sequence also recorded colorful star trails."

Gosh, when I first read your post I was worried you may have gotten so hopelessly lost in Death Valley that you wound up in the Himalayas. Great image you’ve posted. Stunning.

All I got was part of the Eagle Nebula, looking for your star trail shot.
