I'm presenting to you, my new piece!!
My masterpiece as of 14.10.2010 and also my entry for Eternal Reminiscence contest.
I've worked on this for about 5 days, but the pure work time is about 10 hours.
I am really proud about how it turned out, it's not exactly what I had in mind when I started, but this is a good result.
Here you've got a look on a solar system with star in the center which isn't in visible light spectre, but as the light goes away from the star, it becames visible for human eyes and it creates some very interesting shapes.
Alright, I'm making this up, but why not? We're artists huh?
I've made this in 16:10 and 16:9 aspect ratios, so more people can enjoy this.
And an interesting fact, when I was making this, all colors blended nicely, no ghosts or what so ever, but when exported to JPEG, on the planet on the left, you'll get some very 'disturbing' ghosts, so I've decided to upload both PNGs and JPEGs. PNG got me better quality, but still not as great as in the photoshop itself, but what more can I do.
And also, I've included one Earthy easter egg somewhere in this wallpaper, the one who first finds it, gets a point.

i spy with my little eye...
p.s. awesome composition, and concept with the visible-light-bleeding IR star is quite original! great details all around. I feel like something is missing to really finish this piece off, but as it stands its a great piece

Thank you!
Yeah, I have similar feeling, I had this version finished one day before I published this, but I tried to add something, as you said, there's something missing, but nothing really fit. I've tried light rays, but they kind of ruined it, space-ship trails, but those didn't fit in there, so I've ended up with this.

I think a more rocky looking planet in the foreground would work better than the blue marble you've got there now. that, with city lights on the night side. Because as it stands there seems to be 'life' missing from the scene. But hey, no need to rework this, its fine as is. Maybe in a redux someday
The was the easter egg wasn't it? just curious

You're right, a different planet would be probably better. But, I spend quite long time on this, and I still haven't mastered city lights, so that'll wait.
And I actually didn't noticed the there
no, that's not it

I'll give one advice, it's more like how Earth looks (nope, I don't mean that the planet is blue and green with oceans)
