A circumpolar star trail stack taken from the Table Mountain Star Party, July 26, 2014, at the Eden Valley Guest Ranch. This is a stack created from 250 frames taken for a time-lapse movie, stacked using Advanced Stacker Actions with "Elastic Stars" effect. Each frame was 45 seconds at f/2.8 with the Rokinon 14mm lens and Canon 6D at ISO 2000.

The old Atlas Coal Mine near East Coulee, Alberta, now a museum and tourist attraction. This is a composite of 20 x 1 minute exposures with the Canon 5D MkII and 16-35mm lens at 16mm and f/2.8, and ISO 1250. Taken June 27, 2013. While the Moon was up it was in some cloud and most of the illumination of the foreground comes from a sodium vapour light just off camera at right. Images stacked with StarCircleAcademy's Advanced Stacker Actions, Comet Streaks option.

The northern stars turn around Polaris and the North Celestial Pole in a composite of 400 images taken for a time-lapse and stacked here using Advanced Stacker Actions in Photoshop to create the comet trails effect - Using Comets 90% mode. Taken at the Table Mountain Star Party July 26, 2014 using the 14mm Rokinon lens and Canon 6D. Each exposure was 45 seconds at ISO 200.

A “cloud streak” photo made using the same techniques as in stacking star trails only its the clouds trailing, or streaking. I shot this Canada Day, July 1, 2015 from Scotsman Hill overlooking Calgary, awaiting the fireworks. This is a stack of 110 frames, merged with Advanced Stacker Actions using the Ultrastreaks action. Despite the blending, the ~ 8s gap between exposures still led to gaps in the streaks - you’d have to shoot at 1s intervals to eliminate them. To smooth out the gaps I added a duplicate layer for the sky with a Radial Blur filter applied to further streak the clouds. I also

Circumpolar star trails at dawn over the historic Butala homestead at the Old Man on His Back Prairie and Heritage Conservation Area in southwest Saskatchewan, taken May 2015. This is a stack of 70 frames from a larger time-lapse sequence, from the end of the sequence in the dawn twilight. Each exposure is 40 seconds with the 14mm lens at f/2.8 and Canon 60Da at ISO 1600. Stacked with Advanced Stacker Actions. The foreground comes from a stack of 8 of the final exposures, mean combined, to smooth noise.
