From a technical standpoint, this is a good effort - the slight grain is a positive. From an artistic standpoint, it's rather bland and uninviting to the viewer with nothing in particular to recommend it. The sky should be interesting and have some impact, but doesn't. Sometimes an image, even one as technically competant as this one is, is just an image. A worthy entry into the challenge and directly related to the challenge subject. A good effort falling short in the artistic sense.
I love the composition, i would have liked to seen more definition and contrast, less grain - But i'm a huge fan of star trails - and the title brings back memories.
