Thanks! I don't really have a good reason
for using 2 minute exposures in this shot. I
usually use longer exposures to get a correct
exposure for a moonlit foreground. Sometimes
I have longer exposures simply to keep my CF
card from filling up!
It is so dry in the areas I photograph that
I have never had issues with condensation. I
actually don't know what other people do to
get rid of condensation, its something I
never had to think about.

Nice Dan. My last few star trails have been squashed by condensation on the lens, do you find this a problem? If so, what do you do to alleviate it?
