 My first really long exposure and my first shot in a really long time. I took this during the Geminid Meteor Shower. I couldn't capture the meteors, so I went for the stars instead. Lost of fun.

Editing: not much besides pulling out the blues.

Great colors. I actually think the inside frame detracts from the picture.

Blurry trees. Windy?

I sure wish something was sharp and not moving. I know, not possible when the wind blows the tree's. But the star trails are cool, in fact awesome.

I feel this would have worked better without the border.

With no foreground element, or anything in focus, it is hard to appreciate the rest of the shot.

Very nice, the border is distracting, but I like the movement
