This was my first attempt at taking a NIGHT SHOT of a Falcon 9 rocket with another payload of Starlink satellites heading to space. This shot was taken from my driveway, where the rocket was ascending over the Atlantic 135+ miles to the southwest from me. The red (flashing) streak going across
the upper right corner, is an airliner heading into Orlando International Airport.

Being on bulb for about 1.5 to 2 minutes, caused the star streaking also.
