My first attempt to star trails........

While browsing internet, i found few beautiful pictures of start trails. After seeing those picture, i decided that i will also capture such nice star trails... So i went to WhiZZ the camera store to buy Nikon MC-DC2 shutter release cable for my Nikon D3100 with 18-55 mm.



To shoot star trail we need to consider N number things, for instance... at what time moon shows up, weather, super fast wide angle lens .... but did not know about all these when shot this.

I shot this picture from my balcony with my broken tripod :(

I took 14 photos with 15 sec exposure , used star trail software to stack those pictures and than iPhoto to do some fine tunings.
