Deep in the heart of New Mexico, stars are also big & bright!
Far greater in height but not sure about circumference, Cabezon Peak is mindful of Ayers Rock in Australia.
Very nice, one or the other of your flics may become wallpaper!

One of the more famous volcanic plugs in New Mexico is "Shiprock" up in the northwest corner of the state. It is on my bucket list to go take some Milkyway photos at Shiprock:
