The important thing about stars

 

..Is that if you are away from friends and missing those that you care about most, you can always look up to the stars and know you still share the same sky. This photograph is a super long exposure (about 90 minutes) showing the star trails in the skies above Edrom, in the Scottish Borders. This was my first attempt and I hear the moon is going to be doing something rather special at the weekend so look out for more lunar shots then. In the meantime some lyrics from Karine Polwart :

You’re a beautiful trace
Across time and space
You’re a thing that once shone
And you still shine bright
In the darkest night
Though you’re already gone
