Please excuse my ignorance, but how the hell did you do this? How long did it take?

Sorry for the late reply! It's a series of about 45 photos all merged into one picture. Each exposure was 3 minutes. I just found a place that was more or less free of any other light pollution, and left my camera to take the photos while I went home to watch TV. haha! After a couple hours, I went back to pick up the camera, and it was actually the headlights sweeping against the foreground during the last exposure that made the ground more visible.
