Description

Usually in this kind of shots the brighter stars simply drown in the vast number of tiny stars you capture, which is why I was using a TIFFEN doublefog 3 filter to blur the stars. This unfortunately also decreases the sharpness of the image. To avoid that I took separate pictures with and without the filter and merged the blurred stars into the sharp image.
