This is my first attempt ... LOL

What did you use for settings ?

Possibly not the right ones - ISO 800 and I think about f/6.3

Focal length ? Exposure length ? Timer settings ?!

Looks to be a lot of gaps...

Go wider - get the north star involved and get a subject in there too

Can you tell I'm new to this?

28mm, 30 second exposure, and I was using a remote shutter

Thank you - A lot more practise and hopefully I will get something nearly as good as some in this thread. I will certainly try a get a subject next time too!

The weather and sun-set times are just about right at the moment without being too cold !
