Seems obligatory but this is amazingly executed. Did you use a fill flash? Haha, kidding.

I was waiting for an astrophoto to come up. Good job. Is this tracked or just high ISO?

It is a fascinating sky but the image does not quite work to me. Adding a shadow of an observer would turn it into much more powerful image and inspire greater appreciation and connection with the viewer. It is amazing how many stars are out there!
