'Twas the Night Before Christmas

A perfectly clear night on Skye, a true Christmas miracle! Conditions 'demanded' I head out on a cold Christmas Eve for a wee bit of astrophotography - still on the steep part of the learning curve due to so few opportunities to practise. Had previously checked out this place thinking the lone tree in a cemetery would be a useful location for starry shots, hoping the Milky Way would cooperate. Kept my eye out for Santa flying in from the North...

 

This was done using nine 10-second shots at ISO 3200, then stacked in Sequator. If anyone has any helpful suggesions I would really appreciate them.
