Star Trails over The Red Cliffs

This star trail was shot at Red Rock State Park with the camera pointed at Polaris against the Red Cliffs. I didn’t use a foreground shot here since once I’d processed the sky shot, I didn’t think I really needed one. I used the stacking software(Sequator) that I used for capturing nebula and the Red Cliffs were getting enough cumulative light from the passing cars to get uniformly lit. This exposure was a series of 30 second exposures over 90 minutes.
