Here's something new I started a while back, stopped for a while, and now decided to rework and finish.

Love it, love it! I had it in the VB and had to find you and the photo. Superb work here. It was well worth all the hours you put into it. Bravo! :) :) :)

Life is the pits sometimes, but God and your friends are always there to help you through it.

I about fell off my chair when I viewed it first..saved it in my Christmas file, as it certainly is a visual present to be admired and absorbed..Whatever the time it took for you to create this, it was well worth it..excellent..and a 10 if I get a chance to vote on it.

"I never looked for it, gave it no name; yet I knew it always, when the gift of peace came. I stood quite still for the moment that it lasted...Then the light shifted slightly and the moment passed, leaving me...with the lasting echo of its presence.." Diana Gabaldon

The colors and image quality are great, but the scene is a little scary with the planet so close!

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

Magnificent!!

After I finish my first video project on Our Earth, I should seek to do one tribute to the mindstorming manipulation talent in here. =)

Very nice work, the image has real power to it.

I also see you're a fellow Vue user - your pics at DeviantArt are quite good.

Take a look at Terragen 2 when it's finally released, that'll be the best scene generator around.

Well conceived and manipulated. I'm fond of snow, but ice, not so much.

I had never seen this before today when it showed on the main page of caedes. This is the most wonderful creation I've seen in years! Going to save this for posterity. Altho I'm not so sure how there can be stars in a daytime sky..but it looks wonderful. I am a lover of snow
and then to see the planet there also, in all its glory , wow.
Wicked good, magnificent....thank you so so much. Verena

"Well," said Pooh, "what I like best," and then he had to stop and think. Because although Eating Honey was a very good thing to do, there was a moment just before you began to eat it which was better than when you were, but he didn't know what it was called. ~A.A. Milne
