Description
The Constellation II chases down the nucleus of a very suspicious comet.Yeah, I'm guilty of "variations on a theme" here, but I really liked my comet image and wanted to use it in a composition where it could play a stronger role. The disorienting angle is my choice. I flipped it all around and this is the view that seemed to deliver the best impact to my eye-brain combo pack.

Makes me thing of those little fanfares of music in the original series when we'd see the ship.
As for, being "guilty of variations on a theme", hey King of Nebulae here!

I'd dub you "KoN", but that's already taken by my bud wmconnors. So you'll have to settle for "Your Nebulosity".

That is a REALLY convincing comet! It has all kinds of little areas of complexity and glare, looks very much like a comet's tails. The composition is very exciting and energetic, and your color palette is beautiful! Finally, I think backing out from the Connie gives a better sense of what's going on, allowing the viewer a bit more orientation and focus. Total winner!

Glad you like it. This is probably more of what was in my head when I approached "Chasing Tail" in my head, but once I got the model loaded and started moving my camera, I got seduced by Madkoifish's detail
