The is the second in the series (Sunstone being the first). I used a modified version of an earlier post as my background - it matched the feel I was trying to create. This is a combination of Macintosh fractals, Apophysis flame, and Photoshop CS2 work. Hope you enjoy!

Even tho I think we've almost run out of compliments for your creations...we love them for sure. It's like looking thru an art book...you wonder what will be on the next page, and the anticipation is great, then you turn the page..and WOW..there is yet another great one!!! The lines in this design of yours are just awesome..the gentle curves and the soft colours..are filled with the magic of the universe...a wonderful thing Nathan..thank you so much.....

Your images seem to have such a balance of the ethereal, fine jewelry and timeless spritual vibes emanating from them.

Yet again, you make all the rest of us feel like lil' people ; ) would you go open a gallery! or do you have one already? I was in a hoydie/toydie Downtown Chicago photo gallery last weekend and not just yours but your work in particular, as well as several others on Caedes would simply blow away some of the stuff I saw in there. I mean Nathan, an extra 6 to 10 k per peice wouldn't hurt the family coffers would they? lol. I have the info for anyone interested in submitting a portfolio to this extremely respected gallery (ahumm, their words not mine), if interested...They say however it may take up to a year for them to review...due to the volume of submittals. I'm tellin' ya, some of you guys should look into sending out portfolios. They will accept cd's and dvd's...

Well, you have done it again. Your work is always amazing, but this is extraordinary even for you. I gasped out loud when I saw this image; it literally took my breath away. I absolutely cannot wait to see the next in the series (please tell me there will be more!).

I'm with the above posters on this., another great piece you have here. Great color combinations here, and especially the use of the mini-gems that look like moonstones you used in the arcs moving away from your central piece. Just beautiful... *Bow*

Nathan, Your Photoshop creations are amazing. This is no exception. Although I don't take enough time to comment on all of your gallery, I love what you create. You are the master of this type image an I want to thank you for sharing your knowledge and supporting the work of others. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Great image design and wallpaper.

I love the intricacy of the silver work. It almost looks like the moonstone is opening up, like a locket or something. Reminds me of science fiction or fantasy, like an amulet of great importance or power. It's breathtaking.
