Artist's Comments

Story: Lonliness is a privalege for the rushed man, while is a disease which feeds off hope for those who have it. But beauty can be found in nature, where you may be lonely but never alone. To be alone is a true fate, if ever there is such a thing.

This is my first piece in a quite a while. I tried to work for minimalistic composition this time, and i also tried a different method for the nebula.

I decided to just have the one planet as an almost twin feel to the piece, and also to give the idea of loneliness and solitude.

Comments and criticism appreciated;)

Hey Sam! Good job! it really does have a minimal feel to it! :)

Let me explain :)

Planet:
The planet atmosphere has a lovely dreamy affect,
& the atmosphere glow is nicely done,
however, the glow does not seem to dynamically fit to the crescent, what i mean is, the actual main glow ends sort of abruptly into a medium sort of glow, the medium glow ends dynamically, but the main glow does not seem to end dynamically into the medium glow, if you get me :| but overall it is a fairly nice atmosphere.
The planet texture is truly astounding here, it has very good depth & shapes,
A very very good planet from you Sam, good job :)

Nebulae:
Yes, does seem different from your normal,
But definitely in a good way,
it has some very nice shapes & wispyness,
i presume this is a smudge nebulae?
it has the shapes of one, very smooth,
quite nice, i like it :)
The flare stars in the nebulae are also well placed & look fantastic,
good job :)

Title Placement:
The title placement is nicely aligned,
& it dosnt distract from viewing the image,
& the sort of blur to them adds to the dreamy affect,
good job!

Composition:
The compositon is fair enough,
& you definitely can feel the simplistic effect,
makes quite a nice wallpaper,
Everything is fairly well placed,
so overall good work :)

Overall:
Overall a fantastic simplistic picture that makes an excellent wallpaper!

:thumbsup:
