Very neat! Do you mind describing what settings you used and a bit about the environment where you shot it?
Absolutely! We shot this about 20 minutes north of Haliburton, Ontario (I was there for a bike race).
The camera is a Sony a6700 (it's an APS-C camera so make sure to adjust if you're shooting full-frame), the lens is a Sigma 16mm F1.4 prime lens .
Shot @ ISO 100, f2.8
Turns out it was only a 15 minute exposure (I think my 30 minute exposure was on my film camera, oooops)
I found the north star by using the Photopills app, I also used the app to figure out what exposure to shoot at. It's a great app for calculating exposure, finding the milky way, and planning shoots.
I brought along a tripod, and used the (terrible) Sony app to remotely control the length of the exposure in bulb mode.
Previous to this I took plenty of shorter star photos (15 seconds, ISO 1600, F1.4) which turned out really well. For those shots I just used a 2 second shot timer to prevent camera shake when activating the shutter.
