Lake of the Lone Indian

Is this something I could do with a point and shoot?

Beautiful shots, btw!

Agree that its a nice shot.

Not all point and shoots are equal. A camera like the Ricoh GR might be able to do this.

maybe. thing is, these images are already pushing the capabilities of a full frame camera. If you are ok with star trails, you can get by with a lot less camera.

from the reference site of sensor performance:
