For out, Really like this & totally Dig the concept also Greg, not many do it actually, yet it is so inspiring ? I did similar with a barndoor mount back in the '90s, it could track east and west, Had a film camera with slide film and a manual lens, track for 2mins fully open, drop the cap on, switch to westward tracking for a minute, step the apeture down to F15 and lift the cap for another 15mins, only the bright stars left trails, eg the sth cross or orion etc !
Coool , you have just given me an Idea with todays gear ? Cheers !
