http://archive.stsci.edu/cgi-bin/dss_form just for peoples curiosity this is where the publisher on flikr gets his space images. I think its great, type in some co-ordinates and you can get a decent background of the universe

Would make a great poster. Well done

i really like this
woow!!

This is a really effective pic. Well done & good luck

Love the color contrast and unique idea.... good luck author.

ooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh............woow.......... always wanted a "Parrosus", where can I get one?

Harry Potter will be red-eye when I ride a Parrosus

nice colors, great blending.... almost PERFECT!!! (only feel that it the mane, tail and wings were more flowing... like hair, but this is only my personal preference)

Stunning ... excellent work, wonderful creation! If I could I would fav it 2 or 3 times!

OH THANKS Glad you guys like it so much!
I do see where you are coming from aheman, but I really wanted to stick with the totally feather approach. Thanks for your input though, much appreciated

Beautiful creation, wonderful color!! Well worth the effort you put into it! The revise makes it even better!

Wonderfully thought out and done.. AWESOME!!!

Excellent image!

Wonderful colours,nice reflection,it's a fantastic creation !

nice nice

nice color combination!

this looks like a cool animal

NICE... WELL DONE but agreed with aheman. The flowing problems because there's a minor shadows in my opinion.

And this is just my input, Author: the Rim Lights should never be 100% white. Photographers will know about this, even if it's directly hit from the sun, there will be a little yellowish or even reddish for the rim lights.

Still, top notch blending, Author! High votes! Good Luck!

Beautiful composition, nice colors and wonderful creation.

Very nice work!!

Magnifique !

Thanks everyone!!!!

Hayato, thanks that was a good call, I updated the background so the light has more of an orangey glow, and is not so pristinely white.

Amazing!!!!

The edges of the horse are a bit too sharp for the image, especially with the filter effect. There is also a bit of a dark outline where you removed the background. You might want to blur them slightly by using an eraser with a soft edge.
