I thought the star trails were a bit short. (but then what do I know)

The trails look longer on this shot (the third one on the top row):

Tech info- OM2-N on auto, with the exposure compensation dial set for 
plus two, Fuji Superia 400, tripod, and an H.Zuiko 24mm f2.8. I don't 
remember the aperture. Location was Ray Roberts State park near 
Gainesville, Texas, facing westerly. Given the overly dark nature of the 
  picture, I'm guessing the exposure was at about the three minute max 
of auto.

Thanks, Steve Goss, Dallas Tx usa
