Startrails over erupting volcano

Hi,

Recently my mate and I went to Hawaii to a teacher conference and part of that was to visit the Gemini North Observatory and other scopes on top of MAuna Kea.
I was determined to at least take one astrophoto here. After being told to that it would be unlikely that my t ring adapter and 400d would attach to the back of the Gemini scope I decided also to get rid of my ToUcam from my luggage.
I took this during a night visit to an erupting volcano by resting my Canon 400d on a wall at the observation point. Quality is about zero in terms of images but it is my only astrophoto from Hawaii and I like it.
