Shane Moss and I took 240 images over a two hour period to catch these star trails. They were taken between 9:30 and 11:30 at night.

Exposure settings: f/5.6 - ISO 100 - 30 sec

The photos were merged in Photoshop using Smart Objects - Stack Mode - Maximum. Total processing time was around 3 hours.

For the three or so hours we were out there we simply hung out on lawn chairs in front of the aircraft chatting.
