Description “When I look up at the night sky, and I know that, yes, we are part of this Universe, we are in this Universe, but perhaps more important than both of those facts is that the Universe is in us. When I reflect on that fact, I look up — many people feel small, ’cause they’re small and the Universe is big, but I feel big, because my atoms came from those stars.”
-Neil DeGrasse Tyson
I made this piece to describe my complete fascination and love for the beauty of this universe, i hope you like it and let me know what you think in the comments and don't forget to favorite it!

No idea how much skill or work this takes, but I certainly like the resulting image. Capturing.

Very nice amalgamation of the photos used. I didn't realize it was a photomanip @ first, but then I started looked through the source photos.

I imagine that took quite awhile. Very nice work.

TylerReitan In reply to moose-lee [2014-03-22 20:35:13 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! I used Photoshop, I took the photos that I linked in the description and cut the parts of them that I liked out then I put them over the picture of the eye and adjusted it all to make it blend together using various techniques. Then I added a little bit more detail to some parts by painting over it and adding textures to it, the whole process took a few hours I believe.

thats cool, as if the life would literally flash before her eyes during a moment of turning into zombie or something. your style is kinda commercial

what kinda message you wanted to get forward with this, i mean this is pretty deep right?

TylerReitan In reply to AnxCC1337 [2014-03-22 20:17:10 +0000 UTC]

Thank you , is that a good thing? lol it's pretty much just me expressing my love and fascination with the beauty and complexity of the universe. But with my works I like to let other people interpret it for themselves also and just let their imagination create a story for it.

So beautiful! That tear from the side is pretty much a necessary part, makes this piece even more powerful. I teared before when I gazed up at a stellar night sky, with no clouds present, so much in helping me relate to the appearance of this.
