Interesting explanation below Johan, thanks for that. Something I've been wanting to try for sometime now, you've rekindled the desire to try it. Will try your technique.

Johan Lind Thanks, and good luck Scott - I hope I'll see your results here at OE!

Great capture Johan - Just curious. Don't you have the possibility of "bulb" instead of all the 30 sek. exposures?

Johan Lind Thanks Torben!

About making several 30 s captures - I think this method has several advantages, especially when it comes to control. For example, if lots of frost starts accumulating on the lens, I always have those correctly exposed images that were taken before frost became a problem. And, according to other people, with DSLR noise can be a severe problem with looong exposures. Some say it's because the sensor gets warm. I'm not that experienced but to me this 30s method works well.
