Particles almost impossible to see.

I have a problem with all my particles, when they are watched from the ground and up they are very visible.
Watching them from the top and down to the ground they are getting faded out alot.
I am using scattersky.
Is this because the particles treats the scattersky as a black background and therefore is much more visible with scattersky as background?

You can see it in this video:

Look at the particles with the terrain as a background, they are almost completely faded away!
