Could be a clip from new Missile Command video game, but it's the busy sky of Toronto!

Shot during and after the Earth Hour on March 29th. Started from 6:49pm to 12:46am every 30 seconds using Canon 5D.

Frames were imported into after effects and the highlights of each frame stays and is added to the next frame and so on; causing the trails for the planes, helicopters and stars to stay for the whole duration.

    very nice idea. Kudos for keeping the streaks in. This is what makes the images special and different. Paired with the good composition and level photoshopping, this makes a great video.

    Next time try a shorter interval, something like 2-6 secs.
    The streaks appear to harsh. I like see smooth streaks.

    how do you do that. Do just paste the frames over each other and keep lower everything except for the highlights.
