wow.. how long shutter speed on that? 10 minutes?
i mean, since you can see the stars moving...

thats freakn awesome I sooo need a camera (preferably digital) with a manual shutter.

Whoa!!!...I've seen you do something similiar this is just gobsmackingly brilliant, what incredible movement! How do you do these? Do you take a hot water bottle with you?

I should have taken one, because I was usingmy friends camera for this since my batteries died from the cold, then when I went to warm them up I dropped one and lost one...I am thinking of investing in a fully mechanical camera, that way there are no batteries to die

But basically, my camera is on a tripod, I use a shutter cable release, set the desired aperture, and the shutter speed to B (Bulb - shutter stays open until you want it not to anymore) open the shutter, lock the cable release, muck around fro 20 minutes, unlock the cable release, wind on the film and try again D the longest I have done was like an hour and a half
