SW Star Trails.

Unguided photo taken with a Hasselblad 500C/M camera mounted on a tripod with a Carl Zeiss Distagon 40mm f/4 C T* lens at f/5.6 using Fuji Provia 400F film with a total exposure of 60 minutes started at 1:36 AM on June 20, 2004 in Ellenville, NY. The main exposure was 59 minutes, then the lens was covered for a minute, and uncovered for a minute to show the stars. This image has teh celestial equator (straight trails) along the diagonal. the stars further away from the equator curve away from it as they circle the respective poles. I like the way star trails capture the colors of the stars.
