Thanks for the comments & the link problem, you're right I did it in haste, never a good idea. I hope they work now.
Orion shone out so brightly last Monday night when coming home without a camera, I bet it will be really cloudy all week now I want to count stars.

Thanks Mavis but no circular blur,it's all from the camera. This one isn't so much about composition as the entirety of the trails. What you see is the movement of the earth against the stars. Instead of leaving the shutter open for over 2 hours, which would result in too much noise, I took 130 identical pictures using a remote then stacked them with a free downloadable programme so you can see the trails in all their glory. I particularly enjoy seeing the different colours.
The effect of the light pollution above the huts can be clearly seen even though it's in a very good part of the country.

Patience is a virtue, so the saying goes. I think you proved that here Paenny, well done.
