Circumpolar Star Trails

Here is a shot of circumpolar star trails as seen from my backyard in Oakdale CT. This is about a 2 hour exposure with a bright Moon in the sky (to the south, out of the picture). The film was Kodak PMZ-1000, the camera was a Canon FT with a Canon 28mm F2.8 lens set to F11. Teh object at the upper left of the image is the edge of the roof of my house. The dotted lines in this image are due to airplanes flying over (I count 5 visible airplane trails in this image).
