Re the star shot: If the stars were being panned by the camera, we have no idea of exposure time, so the streaks might also be a meteor shower or snowflakes. Starlink sounds too easy. In addition to Vega, I believe I can see Eltanin at about 120 degrees from Vega. Further along that line but out of shot you would find Kochab. Well above Vega and well out of shot you’d find Deneb. Bottom left well below the trees you might find Rasalhague, and out of shot to the left you’d find Altair. The tracks at 120 degrees top-right and from Vega also look interesting. DaveP
