The other photos of the Ames Monument I found on the web (searched because this was new to me) are pretty interesting.

I couldn’t pin down the north star but I could find the right area do to the shortening star trails.

It isn’t astronomy, but have you seen any of the lightening pictures from the volcano that is erupting in Chili??

Amazing!

I’ll say those four stars to the right of the monument are part of Sagittarius....things are a bit distorted.

The interior of Ames Monument is hollow and I have been inside. The last time I was there the opening had been plugged. Too much partying in there I suppose. It's near an abandoned town that formerly served the transcontinental railroad.

I know way too much useless information.
