The 6th annual Julian StarFest was indeed a good one. The weather was fantastic, skies were clear, and wine was flowing (so I heard).
The wife and I stayed at the
Artists' Loft Cabins about 4-5 miles south of the star party grounds. The night sky photos were taken from there.
Be sure to click the images for larger versions (especially the star trails photos, the smaller versions look pretty bad in IE due to it's lack of anti-aliasing).
