Star trail single exposure of 25 minutes.
This is the otherworldly area below the Freney, southwest face of Mont Blanc massif.

From left to right: Mont Blanc, Aiguille Croux, Aiguille Blanche, Aiguille Noire, Mont Rouge de Peuterey.
Above: Polaris
Lighting from East: rising Moon

Due to the long exposure, the camera captured also a sort of light coming from the West... honestly I do not know where it came from, perhaps from France, or perhaps it might be light reflected by the high glaciers of the massif.
In any case it's offering some sort of aesthetic contribution

25 minutes?? I see photos with 5/6 minutes with longer trails... do you think they made post-production?

~RobertoBertero Oct 21, 2012 Professional Artist

I don't know what other photographers are doing, but 5/6 minutes for a star trail is just... nothing (!!!)
if you see longer lines with such a short exposure exists also the possibility that has been used a telephoto lens
