Very nice color and composition. It makes me feel like I want to be there.

Nice mix of stars with the warm camp light highlighting just enough

Luke has it right, there is a good mix of camp light and night sky color. I think you could have upped your ISO and decreased the exposure time to keep the stars as pinpoints without the bit of streaking caused by the 30s exposure.
