Thanks for presenting such an interesting photo

The aim of every artist is to arrest motion, which is life, by artificial means, and hold it fixed so that a hundred years later, when a stranger looks at it, it moves again, since it is life.

Thanks Frans.

While it's not the best photo, I think the focus slipped on me, it does show what is possible with a fast lens even in a light polluted area.

I'd love to have a 200mm 2.8 for this one or some kind of star tracking and some dark skies so I could hold the exposure longer.
