Description

Coryell Chapel in southeastern Nebraska. This is a series of 125 images shot back to back to back. Each photo was a 30 second exposure, for a total duration that lasted about 75 minutes. I used star-stacking program that combined the 125 images into a single image. The North Star is the single star in the middle of the circular pattern. The earth’s rotation results in the circular pattern of the star trails, when pointing the camera to the north.
