Amazing sunset. Did you get down before dark - looks like you only had about 20 mins light left - or were you staying out?
I managed to get to top before sun actually set. Yes your correct was about 20 min light left when picture was taken.
Was a mad rush up to the top of hill , for actual sunset. this was best pic taken that night, sunset pictures turned out not good.

Amazing, Alf!
I wish my Panasonic would allow me to do star trails. It only allows exposures of max. 120 seconds, even with manual exposure time on B or timed cable release. I don't have the nerves to stack pictures in Photoshop, so all I can do is save for another camera and enjoy your pictures!

What Panasonic model is that?

That shot 100 30 second exposures blended in camera.

I both have a G5 and a GX7, my husband has a G6. All of them have a max. exposure time of 2 minutes, no matter what you try (bulb with locked cable release, timer). I know that I probably can blend them in Photoshop, but I am always too lazy to do that. Tried it with HDMI and Panorama shots, they all still sit in single pictures on my harddrive, I never managed to put them together...

You need something like Starstax for startrails

For stitching panoramas it is easy in Photoshop if the shots are planned well enough
