The Earth rotates around its axis, while the stars appear fixed in the night sky. If you place your camera on a tripod and take a photo of the night sky spanning a few minutes, you will see that stars draw small arcs. It’s easy and you don’t need fast and expensive lenses – and it’s fun. You can still start with that in the digital age. In the times of film photography, almost any astrophotographer – myself included – started by shooting star trails.
