Taken from the top of the ridge near Beechmont, Queensland. A very cold night out in the open, but great views of the sky from here. This image is a composite of 209 one-minute exposures.

This is really cool. I love star trails, but have yet to get any decent ones.

Thanks, I've found it's a good technique to avoid plane trails. You can clean up (or throw out) images with plane trails without losing too much work.
