Star trails over Patricia Lake and Pyramid Mountain in Jasper National Park. Moonlight provides the illumination and a faint aurora is at lower right in the northeast. The Big Dipper is the main pattern right of centre.

This is a stack of about 100 frames to create the star trails using Advanced Stacker Plus actions in Photoshop with the Long Comet streaks effect. Two additional single frames are layered in, one for the ground from one of the frames and another for the sky to create the point-like stars after a gap at the ends of the trails. This frame came from a minute or so after the last trail frame was taken. Each exposure was 20 seconds at ISO 1600 with the Canon 60Da and Rokinon 14mm lens at f/2.8. The frames had to be cropped to cut out car lights from a road off frame at right.
