We are in the process of planning a Star Trails evening for CCC. Last night was the first clear night since the moon waned enough, so I ventured out at around 21.30 to see what my nearest sky-view point gave me. There was quite a bit of low cloud especially to the north so not ideal. The first five images are pointing South to South East, so towards Comberton and Cambridge. The star trail image is from a stack of 20 images (30 seconds each, F4, 16 mm equivalent focal length). The last image looks North - the Plough constellation is in the image but not the Pole star. Lessons learned - probably need c80-100 images, a clear sky and a wider lens if possible.
