| ___________________________________ [Feb 13,2007 10:25pm - powerkok ""] Its not real, at least not taken at the same time. Looks like an HDR merge. |
| ______________________________ [Feb 13,2007 10:34pm - pam ""] It's pretty bullshit though... |
| ____________________________________ [Feb 13,2007 10:54pm - dreadkill ""] nay |

| _______________________________________ [Feb 14,2007 12:14am - the_reverend ""] yeah, I was going to search for it, but decided to brush my teeth instead. some of those pictures on their are composed of more than one shot and fuax-colored. |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 14,2007 12:16am - porphyria ""] digitally enhanced of course, but not necessarily fake. |
| _______________________________________ [Feb 14,2007 12:31am - the_reverend ""] one of the best techniques for shooting galaxies is to take 3+ shots with a star tracking mount, and merge them together. you can get galaxy shots with your 70-200mm. if you look at a nebula far off and think "wow, that looks cool. I would love to see that", but a lot of the shots are taking IR, Xray, and other things we just can't see. http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap061208.html |

They's coming ta throw ya in da gulag. yeah, it's definately enhanced, looks like a few images mended together. |
| ______________________________________________ [Feb 14,2007 1:45am - BobNOMAAMRooney nli ""] Some of those images on the NASA site are incredible, but then I unconsciously add, "...and you will never get to go there and neither will any human who will ever live." to the end of each description. |
| ____________________________________ [Feb 14,2007 7:36am - anonymous ""] Umm... am I the only one who noticed that the clouds are illuminated by the fireworks only on the left side of the image? Why is the lightning not casting a reflection on the water? I've seen moon landings faked better than this. |
