Take the stars for a spin.
An action includes a series of changes that can be made to an image with the click of a button. With the pasted sky layer selected, open the Actions panel (Window > Actions) and click the flyout menu. Choose the Star Trails Rotation action from the Stars Trails folder and click Play. Then save the file to your device as a JPEG. -
Change the sky.
Return to the original image and choose Edit > Sky Replacement. Click the Sky thumbnail, and then click the + button to import the sky image file you just saved. -
Fine-tune it.
Adjust the settings to finesse the results and click OK. Now that you have your new sky, you can use it in other compositions too.
