Psalm 19:1 The heavens declare the glory of God. Credit: NASA, ESA and W. Harris (McMaster University) I enhanced this a little and used a tutorial by Nathan Smith to learn how to make the gold embossed stroke. It can be found here "NGC 7049's strikingly appearance is primarily due to an unusually prominent dust ring seen mostly in silhouette. The opaque ring is much darker than the din of millions of bright stars glowing behind it. NGC 7049 is pictured above as imaged recently by the Hubble Space Telescope. NGC 7049 spans about 150 thousand light years and lies about 100 million light years away." from NASA's Astronomy picture of the day site which can be found here Have a blessed Easter, everyone!
