Like the tittle says, this was really my first attempt at Star Trails. It was a nice clear and cold night so I decided to head out to the backyard and give it a try.
Here is the result.

Awesome! I like the blue in the sky. The trails look really good too.

Looks good but too much blue saturation for my taste .

Wow - one 27 minute image? Cool - I'm amazed that there isn't more light noise. And I like the blue, too.

I really like this! I am amazed that there isn't more movement in the tree.

Thanks for all the info everyone!
Yes, it was one exposure (first tutorial I found said to do it this way).
I did shoot with long exposure noise reduction on. Which was a frustrating wait, but I think the results worked very well.

APG- It was a very very calm night.

ebann... I think I see it too. will fix that.

Thanks
Erik
