Details:
I tried an experiment to show the twinkling difference between two objects that appear almost the same to the unaided eye, the planet Mars that is now near the star Antares, its rival in the sky!
The result is surely satisfactory. I took a long exposition shot, moving the tripod head (and naturally the camera with it) during the shot, resulting in a dotted trail for the star and in a more smoother one for the planet. As it was expected. I put also a b/w elaboration of the most significat portion for a better comparison. The second picture is the original one without labels.
