Depending on your location (if you have light pollution) you would probably want to combine many short exposures to make your image. If you were to keep the shutter open for 8 minutes and you live in a light polluted area like most the resulting image will be over exposed and washed out.
Here is a link from my flickr.com page. The image is made from 94 frames of 60 seconds each for a combined 94 minutes of star trails.
when i tried doin star trails i was on a beach so no light pollution.. and i did it for 8 min and it came out fine
Also, what would be a good white balance setting to use? Daylight?
