Congratulations to the winners!
You got the shot of the Milky Way done right, but I think there could be some post processing work done to remove the planes/light strikes across the sky. A more interesting foreground would also help to add interest to the otherwise dead space in the image.
Carlos Martins Thank you so much for sparing your time to give constructive feedback. I was aware that this image needs work but to see some considers this as a snapshot makes me really sad. Planning weather (to find a clear sky in Germany is really a challenge), location, exposure, post processing, equipment for milky way should not be compared with a snapshot. But as I said I would also rate my image as 2.
The high contrast in the bottom right has become the focal point instead of the milky way. You should consider darkening that area. And I agree with Carlos that the a more interesting foreground would help.
Thanks Gregory for your nice feedback. What do you think if I could lightened the whole foreground somehow?
