Dance of the Ghost Lady

This image was taken at 9:22 pm. My exposure was four minutes and thirty seconds with a whole bunch of exposures. I lost count. This image is also made up of six different images. Do you see those streaks in the sky? Could I be so lucky as to capture a metior shower?

The dancer in this image was in the Steven King Movie The Langoliers. She was the little girl at the end that says something like "daddy daddy look at the new people". Lucky for me I don't have to pay her royalties like the movie people do.


Back to the streaks in the sky. Those are actually star trails. That is how far the earth moved while I took the exposure. If you are good in math, let me know how far the earth moved during this exposure.
