My vote for #4 is based on the magic and unknown. The believe in God and the church and the unknown out there. All the photos are good, but "4 does have more than a motive. It has a message, that we, as human beings, still are alone about what is out there :-)

I will vote for #1. An excellent capture. Congrats to all the finalists, astro shooting is greatly challenging.

I'm glad I didn't participate. These are at a different level. Great job everyone!

I have voted.
It seems unfair to pick a winner, these are all of such high quality, so well done to all finalists.

Absolutely glorious, and agree- these are on another level altogether! Congrats to all the finalists. Voted

They are indeed all wonderful pictures. Maybe I have been involved with astronomy too long, but in many of them I see an emphasis less on stars (the official intent) than on earthly things, or on aurorae which you might or might not call earthly but are not stars. So they are tempting but I can't vote for them in a contest about stars.

1, 2, 4, 9, 12 are all excellent (to my eye) an very hard to choose between.

I will pass my voice to the - number 15.

-
It is the only pic here, with enough artist elements - the others are more or less just stars.

I was thinking about the number 1,

but
you just can't beat the filling -with this lighthouse in number 15.

GREAT JOB MATE
