Summary

Star Trail above Beccles, near to Gillingham, Norfolk, Great Britain. My <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1852095">last trail</a> (<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://s0.geograph.org.uk/img/external.png">image</a>) was taken in an area with large skies and less light pollution. However I decided to venture out for a little while at Beccles Quay near to midnight and try a star trail here. The street lights highlighted the tree to make it look as if it were dead! However, I can inform you it is green and alive in real life <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/357968">TM4291 : Beccles Quay</a>. I had learnt from last time and brought a stopwatch, meaning even pictures of the same quailty. Twenty photos one and a half minutes long stitched together to give this effect. The faint streak above Polaris (the centre star) is a plane, sadly not a meteor.
