1) Geostationary satellites are very dim (because of their altitude). The image you posted is a 5 hour exposure. It is doubtful that a geostationary satellite would appear that bright (if at all) in a 20 minute exposure. It is extremely unlikely that the photographer would have seen a geostationary satellite with the naked eye.

This is in my local paper website.
The guy claims to have captured these images over 20 minutes and he claims they were not moving.
What do you guys think?

Fair enough. You can have a percentage of all the money I've made from the images. What's 35 percent of diddly squat?
Oooh Lovely, Yes Please!
