Can't say I disagree, but I've won blue ribbons with DNMC images, too (notably this one), so no complaints. I also agree that this looks fake, like a model or diorama. I have outtakes with foreground rocks that dispel the illusion, but I cropped tight to get the meteors as prominent as possible.

This should have been Blue, you actually have shooting stars in it. My comment about it being fake (ish) yeah still kinda stand by it, BUT you have the luck of the Irish, with that car. It illuminated everything so perfectly and made it the crispest, sharpest shot in the pack, with real live shooting stars. Mine is full of space crap. I think you deserve an extra Ribbon for having shooting stars.

This is a fantastic shot, not sure if they are shooting stars , they look like them for sure (to me), so full marks on them. It is the island that bothers me somewhat. It kinda looks a like a model of an island. Everything is so perfect and sharp and clear and in focus and bright. It is a great shot, I just wish I could stop looking at it and thinking it is fake. But interesting side note, I looked up if lighthouses had red lights as I have never seen one or heard of it. And they do, it is for warning ships who obviously didn't think the white was saying danger. SO I learnt something new today! Bump up a point for that
