damn voters. this shot is unbelievably good.
i bet if you'd copied countless other pictures, i.e. by placing a glass sheet with drops of water on it in front of your lens, people would suddenly appreciate this a lot more.
apparently, if a shot doesn't conform to a formula, it's no good, no matter how technically impressive and artfully striking it is. |

I rarely say this, but I'm truly stunned at this score. I think your star shot is better than mine! I got a comment early on that suggested someone thought I'd cloned in some stars, so I asked for validation. Maybe you can try that the next time someone starts questioning your shot.
It'll also help for folks who've never taken a night shot like this and don't understand just how much light a sensor absorbs over a long exposure. I can't speak for you, but my shot definitely shows more light, stars, and details in the mountains than I saw with my eyes.
If you'd be willing, I'd love to see your original. Mine is here: 
Maybe we could collaborate on a tutorial. :) |

| Ah, another shot of stars in the mountains. Unlike mine, though, you have the added beauty of the reflection in the water. And the sky color is just amazing. Bumping to a 10. |

| These stars do not look real. I'm sure that they are, but I find the reflections distracting, and some of them look brighter than the sky. |

| This must have been a pretty long exposure...or the moon was really bright. Great execution! |

| I love how bright the night is and the calmness of the water giving a perfect reflection. maybe too bright on some of the rocks on the right but it doesn't bother me, just trying to thinkof something constructive to help you out. good luck 10. |

| The centered horizon doesn't really work for me. I wish there was more sky even at the expense of cutting off some of the tree's reflection. |

| That is some seriously calm water for sure! Nice job. I think it's almost over-sharpened (?) - the reflection of the stars in the water might have been blurred just a little bit - they almost stick out too much. I like it though and I'll have to try that some time...good luck to ya! |

| The sky feels too pale for those stars. I know the image was shot at night, but it feels like it was shot during the day. |

What a great picture! I really love the reflections! I've always wanted to shoot a picture with the stars reflecting in the water! 10!

| I am looking forward to seeing the specs of your photo after the challenge is over, shutter speed and etc. It's an outstanding landscape. |
