I am posting a file of an ad for Singapore Airlines that's in the latest issue of Forbes Magazine in the USA. It shows a timelapse of the stars at night. But...
... of ... Alan, Where did you post it? i can't find it. One of our ASV members is an expert on star charts in both the north & south, if he can't pinpoint a...

Looks to me as is the star trails were shot in Australia. Might be one of David Malin's images from the AAT collection. The fellow with the beard certainly...

... I agree with that analysis, but if you look at the star paths, they're not moving through consistent arcs (see, eg, the bright group below the word...
The angle that each star rotates through is random, so it's clearly faked, but the person who did it must have had some familiarity with star trail images to...
... I agree totally. Some nice dots in Photoshop followed by a radial blur filter would come close. Guess it goes to show that it's called graphics "art" and...
Hi, Here's a little analysis I did using CdC to identify stars in the Singapore image puzzle. I have/will post an annotated image in the "files" section, when...

With Spring (and Summer) approaching up here in the northern hemisphere, I just wanted to make sure that in fact the sun is supposed to be a bit higher in the...
Alan, ... Well, the sun crosses the celestial equator at the time of the vernal (and autumnal) equinox, so if you turn the RA/DEC grid on, you can see when the...
