Yes they are. For the right colors I only correctet the WB.

These aren't normal startrails. You can see, the trails are small in the beginning and bigger at their end. #2 #5 # and #7 are compose of a minimum of 40 single pics.

Thx a lot for your great feedback! These was my favourite nightscapes but i'm gonna show you some more if you like it.

The next one was made at full moon. I like the trails in the snow

Could you make a complete tutorial on how to do this kind of star trails? That would be so kind of you!

 

[Geaux]

All phenomenal! I've never seen star trails done quite like this before, I'm very impressed.

I too would be interested in how to do star trails that look like comets or meteors. What is your technique or can you point me to a "how to?"

Thank you

First you have to open your exposures in a pile in PS. (You have to make around 40-60 pics to get a nice effect). Set the blending mode of the first picture on normal and the opacity on 100%. Then set the blending mode of all other picture on lighten and set the opacity of the second picture in 98%...the third on 96%...the 4. on 94% .... and do that for every picture. Thats the magic trick I hope you know what I mean? my english isnt really good :blushing:

#12 Milky Way

What were the settings for this shot?

Its a stack of the following exposures :
3 x 2 min
3 x 3 min
3 x 3 min 30
1 x 5 min for the foreground

I guided it with a selfmade Barndoor
