That was taken 2 years ago at the FVAS meet at MacDonald Park. The streak in the lower centre is a Persied meteor, and of course, the Milky Way is in the background.

Oh, anyone trying to do astrophotogoraphy with a Nikon camera may be at a disadvantage. Nikon cameras tend to "add" stars via noise in long exposures. Even the D800 has this problem - not sure about the D800E, as I haven't tried it yet.
