Not bad at all. But on my screen the lines are not so smooth. Could be a couple of reasons. I think Star Trails has a setting to smooth them out... What were your settings? I have found that 30 sec exposures or less, with no more than 5 sec between them (giving time to download the exposure to the camera chip) works pretty well. You got a little foreground in the exposure, which always adds interest. Trees, mountains, buildings.... Airplanes happen! Hard to get the pilots to turn off their lights. That program will also make a timelapse movie using the same exposures. So you get a star trails picture and a movie from the same shots. Two for the price of one! Have fun!

Thanks. MY exposure was 1/30th (cable release locked for continuous shooting) and I used the StarTrax and had the gap filling option checked. I will try it in Star Trails to see which looks best.

Thanks Sonny. I definitely have the bug and have already started researching equipment. I've been into photography for 40+ years and know about being "sucked in". For the short time I have been toying with doing astrophotography, I find myself starring up in to the night sky and being amazed at what I never gave a second thought to.

I recently became interested in Astrophotography and have been amazed with the images everyone creates. This was my third attempt at Star trails from my backyard. Now, if I could divert the air traffic...
Nikon D750, 20mm, 142 images/10 dark frames @ 1/30, f4,ISO 800.
StarStax to process the images.

Images in clouds have always fascinated me. When we were in the car as kids, my father would play "What do you see?". Now, I play with my granddaughter and she makes up stories to go along with the what she sees.
