It’s pretty clear what is meant by “raw photo” here. This is not a raw photo, and probably not really what we’d call a “photo” at all, more like a visualization.

Captured radiant energy was involved in the process, so I think it can be considered a photo. But it’s not raw data straight out of the camera. That being said, a composite timelapse of the night sky isn’t a raw photograph either. I don’t think you find a lot of “raw photos“ in Astro photography
