After seeing the amazing shots @crimbfighter and @SquarePeg posted I wasn't going to show mine, but here goes. As opposed to the wide angle shots they wisely chose I went for the close-up.
These were shot with my D5600 with 200-500mm f/5.6 at 500mm.
#1 10 sec, f/5.6, ISO 6400
I didn't account for the stronger effect of earth rotation using a long lens. Shutter speeds that worked nicely for Milky Way shots using a wide angle showed good sized start tracks here.

#2 0.5 sec, f/5.6, ISO12800
No star tracks, but very noisy. I set noise reduction in LrC to 50 for this image.

It was a gorgeous night out there for sure. And I had fun taking the pictures.
The next time Neowise comes around I'll be there! And I'll do better!
