That's what it is. It's a failed shot on that respect but I played with it and by going up on the vibrance and saturation I discovered the stars were colored differently (maybe an astronomer here can explain) so not all was lost.
Armand: We stars as white dots because our eyes can't accurately render colour in low light, but every star has its own colour based on, among other things, the size of the star, the distance from us and the age of the star.
