Set up Star adventurer mini for a few 60 second  runs with a rough polar align in a very dark area a way from our hotel, only had 12 minutes astro darkness so had to work quickly . It was spookily dark ... Could see the milky way faintly reflected on the ocean.

As the moon started to clear the mountains a Polish chap appeared with his camera but no tripod so we managed to communicate and I let him put his camera on my Sam.

Then again as packing up a German chap arrived so we did the same again for him. It was quite interesting trying to explain the Sam and how it worked.

Here is the one decent image I managed, as you can see when zooming in, focus is off ?

Still a nice memory of a holiday booked by the wife as it's a beautiful dark island ( coinsided with full moon though)

Thanks for looking.

Single Raw file converted with Nikon NX2 and contrast tweaked in CS2. 60 seconds @ F4 and ISO 3200

That's great, lovely sharing too.

Have you tried Sequator it allows you to pick your master frame and mark your foreground then stacks the sky bit.

Cheers Kat, I'll have a Google.

I think the stacking was struggling as if you look closer it's out of focus ?
