The photo at this post location is beautiful. Please correct me, if wrong, regarding this observation. Is each bright spot in the photo a galaxy?

Only a few of them are galaxies. Most of them are foreground stars in our own Milky Way galaxy. Since we are embedded in a swarm of Milky Way stars, the swarm is seen in all galaxy photos, like spots of dirt on a window.
