Description
O M G - wtf am I doing submitting a ... a ... SPACE SCENE?! Well I was bored & I was up all night with the baby he was upset over something... And another fellow deviant pointed me in the direction of Apophysis (that neat-o fractal program! - so much fun! Even my husband has taken a liking to it!) Anyway, I was playing around with fractals and then I went over to Photoshop CS and did a bunch of post work on a couple of fractals I rendered and then I used them to build this space scene *gasp* you can't really tell but that big cloud of dust is actually a fractal.Anyhoo...I know that this is far from the work I normally submit but every once in a while I need a change! I don't expect much of a liking to it, but it was a lot of fun to make and I thought I would share it with you all
This is a bit of a tribute.

\/\/007!!!! yes the Hitchhiker's are still alive!!!....awesome work , tho it's hard to believe that dust cloud is a fractal hey maybe it's that super computer from the third or fourth book! Still the image is amazing as always.

Seeing this masterpiece, I think I want to find Apophysis myself and see if it will be good as yours. Probably not, but what the hell?

This looks like it was grand fun, and it's so beautiful! I'm almost tempted to give the program another try, even though it confused me horribly the last time. I'll have to look around for the tutorials. Goodness knows I need all the help I can get.

ok, first of all, i have to say: WOW!
there isn't anything that i don't like/would correct on this piece. well...maybe the two fractal swirls in the bottom left (the lighter one) and in the bottom right (the one that goes down from the planet-thingie to the bottom)...their lines are kinda jaggy. but...i'm only nitpicking here, so don't pay attention to it, heh.
what i like the most is the color. it's kinda cool and warm at the same time. and i dig the fact that this isn't a typical space scene...like...a planet hitting another one...stuff like that. i never saw a fractal put together in a spacescene that good (if i ever saw such thing at all that is)...very inspirational!
great work!

Thank y ou very much for your comments, its appreciated. Unfortunetly I had to up-size this just a bit because when I was making it I was just tooling around, didnt realize it would come out like this and that I would want to submit it, so when I upsized it a few lines got jagged-y and I tried to correct them but you have a keen eye
Thanks a lot again for your comment.

you're welcome.
and no worries...i was only nitpicking, heh. besides, i actually thought that the jaggyness might be the result of resizing...just forgot to correct myself
anyway...it's a really nice piece!
