[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This was mostly just a test shot testing out how my 20D handled noise on a 35minute exposure.

It's not much to look at but I plan on scoping out a good foreground element I can illuminate next time.. also I think it would work slightly better with a crescent moon out or expose into early morning to get better sky illumination. I'll also probably combine multiple 15 min exposures to handle noise better.

Not much to look at? Great effect! for a moment I thought to see complete circles; impossible of course. This happens every night and day; wonderful.
I admire your techniques for this.

I think this is great to look at, the stars are always a wonder to me. A great time exposure, Well done

John

Very intriguing and daring to us all.
Great experiment.

Cool picture you have with the star trails. I wish my camera would do that. I think your camera did a good job of handling most of the noise and the sky doesn't look too bad, I think having the dark foreground gives the picture some dimension without taking away from the main subject, the stars.
