Glacier National Park - Montana

This is a 20 minute exposure at Lake McDonald at Glacier National Park, Montana showing star trails just after sunset.

The brightest "star" at bottom center is Venus. I stopped my exposure just before the star trail intersected with the landscape. The warm glow on the horizon was from the last remaining light following sunset.
