I know that this is not a wow shot. In fact, I wouldn't even lump it in with the shots of mine that I consider 'good.' However, it is my first attempt at a night exposure when I had somewhat of an idea of what I was doing. I was going to do a shot in manual mode, but my remote seems to need a battery. So I did it in aperture mode and let the camera choose the shutter speed (of course, I had to touch the camera). I hope to do some more of these as soon as I get a battery for my remote and hopefully get some really cool stuff.

Oh, does anyone know what the bright white star in the center is? It was in the western sky.
