It must have been fate that I chose to walk this night. What else could explain it? Divinity had His hand in it--the night sky glowed faintly red but for a few short minutes. I would have missed it if I had embarked at any other time.
I didn't catch the Northern Lights in this particular image, but it was a strange sight to see. I shot this star trail on a whim early last week. It turned out well and yielded one of the best time lapses I've attempted yet.
Instead of using the Star Trails application, I used an action for Photoshop. Star Trails is a windows only program. Also, the software hasn't been updated in years and I'm worried it might become obsolete. For the time lapse, I imported the images to Premiere and set the length of each still to 1 frame (instead of the default 150) in a video set to 30 frames per second. So, every still being a 30 second exposure, each second in the time lapse is actually 15 minutes in real time
