[Leica] Disqualified

[Howard L Ritter Jr]

That’s priceless! But I wonder if the absolutely striking image of termite mounds, with luminescent insects, under a starry sky, wouldn’t have been a contender even without the “night raider”. Also, forensic analysis of the raw data file, if there is one, should reveal any Photoshoppery.  (The article mentioned examination of raw images taken before and after, but not of a raw file of the winning image, which if not available should be a dead giveaway.)
