A star trail photo looking east. On the left, the stars cure to the left around the north star. On the right, the stars curve to the right around the south pole.

A long exposure of the top of a waterfall, just as the water starts to fall. The top of a walkway barrier is at the bottom of the photo.

Well, I finally got around to finding an example. I have both the original that I used for decades in classes and a BW version as it seemed to fit your beautiful photo. I ask students to count the horses. Working through it together is always fun.
