This is an incredible photo. I love the angle of the star trails too. They lead my eye to the bright spot on the horizon.

I've no idea what I'm looking at... except a rather nice piece of imagery.

I should have described it in little more detail.
10-2016 Wallops Island rocket launch.
"The Antares rocket will launch Orbital ATK's Cygnus spacecraft on a NASA cargo delivery mission to the International Space Station."
One 300 second and one 100 second exposure stacked in Starstax, taken at Point Lookout state park, Maryland. About 80km from the launchpad.
