Star-Eruption over Mount Rainier

Mt Rainier is the 5th highest Mountain in the "lower 48" of the United States. It is also an active volcano (just north of Mt St Helens). The July new moon provided this view of the Milky Way as stars erupting from the volcano.

I´m also trying to shoot the Milky Way. So, I know how difficult it is to get it this way. I'm deeply impressed, congratulations.
I would remove the bright star at the left side and correct the trees on the right side so that they grow straight vertically.
But all in all it is a great photo :-)

  Thank you for your remarks, very much appreciated! I was planing on this shot since April for there are only two ~3 day windows per year for this shot (the first was July 12, the second is Aug 12-14). Lots of Google Earth, PhotoPills, and several miles hiking to scout for accessible view points. Surprised how inconsiderate other photographers where using high-powered white lights when walking the area at night - ruined a few shots.
  I hope the August slot won't get ruined by smoke from nearby wildfires. Some are already burning in the area :(
