with almost perfect seeing, temp was about 15°C.Nil Cloud...perfect.
I was just too buggered after having Friday off tidying the yard in

After seeing how Startrails.de works, getting star trails over a sunset should be pretty easy. I'd plan on starting late while the sunset if getting dark to suit the longish exposure and carry on. Should work a treat.

Al, those "stars" near the bottom of frame are moving much quicker than the rest. Maybe you need some infill between the trees.
and I thought someone with eagle eyes would pick them for (Ford) meteors!

Nothing to sort out. No misconceptions. Just not interested in arguing semantics.
