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

Beautiful shots, btw! =D>

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:

I'm still rather convinced that you can achieve more than you've ever dreamed of if you just lower your standards.
