Another star trail shot whilst watching the Geminids. The trail on the bottom left is actuallt a plane. This was my first attempt and I moved position because I didn't think it was that good... but now looking at it, I think this is the better side

No shooting stars
Since I've recently got a decent tripod I thought that the Geminid meteor shower would be a good opportunity to give it its first proper usage so I went out in the cold Sunday night. I had intended doing a few test shots early and then going back out closer to the predicted peak at around midnight but I knew when I saw the cloud coming in from the east I'd probably be in my bed early.
I set up and took some shots but typically the only two bright meteors I saw both happened while the camera was doing its dark frame subtraction, the closest I got to a meteor was this plane heading for the States.
