Excellent work! I'd like to clarify: how many minutes of the original video does 1 frame of the animation represent? I'm guessing that 1 frame = 1 minute of video.

Each frame is 90 seconds, or one and a half minutes.

Awesome. From the balcony, no need to go anywhere or stress, simple equipment, a Svbony Barlow, exposure only 20 ms, and such a fantastic result. Got lucky with the weather!
