pretty cool
"portable tracking mount" used,
"The mount is "pointed" towards the south celestial pole, and the motor on the mount rotates it at the speed that is equivalent to the rotation of the earth. "

Very cool picture. I've thought about making one of those 'barn-door' trackers to try something out like that myself. The nice thing about living out here is that I can go about 20 minutes south of here and be in an amazingly dark part of the country. I'm not so sure about the low light capabilities of my particular camera...I've heard that Nikon and Canon are more up that alley than Sony is at the moment...
