While I was waiting around for some aurora activity earlier this week, I played around with the OM-1's live composite mode while using my fisheye lens. I've made star trail images before, but it's way more convenient to do it in camera rather than having to stack in post-processing. The clouds created a surreal effect as they moved across the frame. This image is incomplete, as a long exposure would have shown better trailing, but I like the way it came out.

Olympus OM-1.1
Live Composite of 8s exposures
Olympus 8mm fisheye PRO @ f/2.0
Probably 30-40 minutes of exposures
