I went out with the photography meet up group last night with a plan to shoot star trails at Smith Rock. When we arrived there was quite a bit of cloud cover which obscured most of the stars. The half-moon was glowing through the clouds which made it fairly light. I took these shots at between 10-11 p.m. With the long exposure (between 15-30 seconds) it almost looks like daylight . . . except for the stars showing through in the sky.
