The first (or fourth) photo seems to me like naked eye would see. > In real life you can see 2000 in the total night sky away from lights. You can see much more than that. Just the fact that you can see Milky Way can give it away (although you can't see individual stars, they are still stars) > How will a long exposure allow you to see more stars? The less bright ones, that you can't see with naked eye, will appear. Just take any regular camera, go out and take a 20s photo of the night sky. You'll see how much more stars you'll see. Yes, some of the pictures are zoomed in quite a lot, and I don't think they are colored though.
