Star Trails is a great program for layering all your images over one another. Thanks Michael for discussing this, i find it much simpler to use than other image programs like photoshop.
Just a quick tip, edit up and clean your images before you stack and layer them as it’ll give you a cleaner final output image from the Star Trails program.
