Fits the theme well, but imo may need a little framing to capture the vastness of it all.

Interesting with no trails.

There are more interesting parts of the sky for sure. What you've captured is the handle of the Big Dipper. Or more correctly: the Tail of the Bear: Ursa Major. The named stars are left to right: Phecda (on the very edge), Megrez, Alioth, Mizar with it's double Alcor (It splits into a triple through a telescope) and lastly is Alkaid. The two brighter stars on the right-hand side are part of Bootes and the lower ones are part of Draco. So, I'm not sure if your photo title was a statement or a question. But, that's what's out there. Oh, and I'll score your photo a 9.

This image is too dark for my taste. Nice try though.

This just seems flat to me, not a lot going on.

Great effort on a difficult challenge. Would have benefited from something terrestrial to provide some perspective.

not much by the looks of it, there is plenty more detail in this image to be brought out if you adjust the levels.

I like how you are able to see the stars and it's not just a black sky

Nice capture, it can be hard to capture the night sky without getting too much noise in the photo, did you use more than one image stacked together?

Get out of here! Very cool image!
