I think that it could be due two factors. First, we use different kind of films. E200 is a reversal film, wich can't manage very good the lights. They goes very saturated, and the stars becomes very white. The other reason is the digital threatment. I try to get the colors of the stars as natural as possible... perhaps i am not doing this so well =)

>Second waht is E200 is that a type of film I don't know >perhaps not from North America??

E200 is the "familiar" shortcut for the Kodak Ektachrome 200. Kodak names these kind of reversal films as the "E family" (with E100, E100SW, etc), all of them the technology top of their production. You can find these films in any professional laboratory or photographic store. The consumer name (for amateur photography, without the same care in the storage as the labeled E200) is the Kodak EliteChrome 200.
