Day 225/16. Star Trails and Meteors.

This is my first ever attempt at a star trail photograph. This is a stacked image of 91 x 30 second exposures from our back yard tonight.
I pulled up a garden chair, set the camera on multiple explosures, aimed it at Cassiopeia, poured a large Pinot Grigio and sat back to enjoy the Perseids Meteors. The meteors were few and far between, perhaps 5 in 30 minutes. Then it was inside to stack the 91 images using software I had never used before and still don't have a clue about.
I did get a result I'm happy with though for a first attempt. This rotation is in around 45 minutes with a few aircraft flying by on the right side.
