The Way Home

Isn't it cold in Iceland? Then why do the people have skin so thin that unless you fawn over a photograph, they have to reply for the 100th time that "I really don't care."? Doesn't criticism help build a person? I love this site, the photographers (including Larus) found here have some incredible talent, my fav bar none is DrAchoo. Yet everytime somebody posts anything other than incredible, fantastic, wow, etc... others have to run to the rescue of the fallen photographer. For the love of everything Holy, they sound like a little league mother protecting their talentless kid. So send the hate mail, but please let free speech run rampant.

It´s Written In The Stars
by LalliSig

Comment:
Definitely a photoshop deal, and not a very good one. There are several aspects that give it away, but the number of stars you put in are ridiculous. When you have an exposure that was long enough to capture this many stars (and apparently a couple of galaxies and nebulas also) you would have to have the darkest sky imaginable. An aurora at the same time would bleed everything out. That's why you usually see very few stars, because the aurora can outshine most of them. The moon can be out at the same time, but the aurora is always on the northern horizon so the moon isn't in the shot. Even so, anything close to a full moon makes it very difficult for the aurora to shine through.

The uniformity and distribution of stars is also a dead giveaway. You may have used an actual shot of stars as your background, but it was taken through a telescope of a much smaller section of sky.

Aurora is brilliant, but paleeeeze show us something new. ughhhh
