Trying out some new techniques with cloud photos
.This one turned out nicely in my opinion but alas I saved it 10 quality to keep the filesize down.
Again I wanted to keep areas of the scene empty so it would add more depth... Did it work?
I need a new monitor as well :/, I'm positive your monitor's will be able to see the grain/sharpening much more then mine can..
Nonetheless I'm going to keep working on this style and hopefully come up with better results
!Hope you all enjoy it!
Edit: Updated with version 2. The original will be Scrapped.

That's pretty cool! Tho personally I'm not a fan of cloud-neb manips... real nebula are pretty transparent and ... well, nebulous - gassy, etc.
In terms of the style your working with tho, it's done really well

Yes! Just the style of heavily textured nebula/gas clouds i've been trying to work with. [link] except your lighting is soo much nicer. Simply beautiful. Nice perspective. Truly unique in a genre that might have a schtic for being repetitive. Thanks

Very nice, makes me want to keep practicing my technique on such pictures. You're right on the sharpening, it seems a bit excessive on some of the cloud sections - doesn't detract from the image, just gives it a somewhat odd look. It looks awesome on the star portions, though, just the right mix.
As I said, makes me want to get better at this style so I can crank out kickass pics like this one. XD I'm still learning on spacescapes.

I really love this piece. Most of the time, I don't find 2 color space pieces to have that much depth, but you've definitely given a sense of it with this work. There are aspects of the clouds that seem extremely high contrast though, and it feels like it washes out some of the detail that could otherwise be present.
But still, keep up the good work.

Thanks for the in depth comment
Yeah those highly contrasted areas were where I added light and set the mode to Colour Dodge.
I got slack..

fcking awesome!!! although I dont like the use of cloud photos for the whole nebula this is just perfect

The bottom right corner is really gorgeous and has that nice hanging sensation. To me though the bulk of the nebula seems rigid and overexposed as is often the result of using cloud photos. Keep at it and I'm sure you'll get some really cool results, but don't get boxed into a corner by those images!
Cheers.

Looking great dude, I would probably lower the contrast in certain places, but thats no big deal, this is nice either way. Good work.
