Southern stars

OK, I lied.
But this is the last one - really!
So here it is, taken close to home during some 'me' time...

C&C welcome.

Ash,

The stars don't move. It is the turning of the earth at 1000mph that gives the motion.
The earth rotates around a center of axis. And the rotation around the southern point of that axis is what you are capturing.

Sorry, I have a passion for astronomy. Very nice work. Wish I had the dark skies.

Wrong choice of words on my part. Sorry.
I did know that.
The dark skies won't be lasting long around where I am - urban development is inevitable...
