This giant is using planets as soap bubbles!! (5 years and 942 days ago)
The background was made from scratch using the following tutorial..

The rest was made totally from the source image using warp, transform,polar coordinates, spherize and various blend modes.
The espadrille string theory is about the strings causing all espadrille planets to hang around in space. ;-) (5 years and 1209 days ago)
Harmony and understanding
Sympathy and trust abounding
No more falsehoods or derisions
Golden living dreams of visions
Mystic crystal revelation
And the mind's true liberation
Aquarius, Aquarius
Nah, you got it all wrong Driven. It's the dawning of the age of espadrilles.
There aren't many voices like Florence LaRue, hehehe, and this vision made me hear her
I had no idea the work had such magical powers. Are you sure you were not under some other influence? *Just joking*
Nope, just a pacemaker.. really neat dreams, especially when I sleep too deeply and it wakes me up LOL
Ahh, the pacemaker was obviously creating the rhythm to the song.
Howdie stranger!

The abode of the bookworms.
Beware of all bookworm invasions.
They get into your head when you are not paying any attention. (5 years and 1248 days ago)
Stunning technique author... I'm just having issues trying to figure out what the planet is.. it looks more like an inter-dimensional rift such as a wormhole (which fits the idea of this chop perfectly) or the porthole in Stargate.
Your use of Polar Coor is awesome as I always get stuck in the symmetry quandary and the work to make it line up drives me nuts...hehehe
It's your interpretation so I'm sure it's okay, I'm just offering up my opinion. (Excellent skill all round). I'm just thinking if a clear sphere or something might add to the piece (ONLY FOR THE CONTEST).
I always give a high vote for good work, and you have it in spades here
This version is fantastic.. I'm just thinking planet. An Oort Cloud around it would be cool as well. IMHO of course. I just love anything Sci Fi (super Geek) so this was a trip right from the start. Good luck author and great job.
Thank you very much. The worm hole effect is what I was after since it's a planet for book worms. Worms need a worm hole to crawl into, don't they?
To get the right symmetry for the polar coordinates, just duplicate your layer and flip it horizontally on a 50% opacity so you have mirrored edges on the sides and then simply erase the center of the top layer before you merge them into one.
I tried the clear sphere over the top of the planet but it was too overdone for my taste.
You forced me to learn something new though. I have never heard of an Oort cloud before so I was curious enough to google it and learn all about it. Thanks for the lesson, suggestions and inspiration. It will all come in handy in future.

What a grrrrrrrreat idea. Your post is clear and crisp and well done. The light on the child makes her pop against the darkened universe and the colourful planets are the icing on the cake.
