I would have preferred it a bit wider and brighter. Get more of the foreground in to see what the scene is, and bump up the iso to probably 400 or 800 to get a bit of colour and life in it and to bring out the stars more.

I agree ... I looked at this a few times and tried to think of something to say but Raikyn says mostly what I was thinking too.

thanks guys,i will remember your advice for next time,though the scene wasn't much,only my wooden fence but i will remember the iso advice for when i try again,also will pick a more scenic place to take it from

Experiment, have fun
If you're wanting to keep the sky as it is, which is nice in its simplicity, you could try getting a torch out and paint the foreground during the exposure.
