Back dropped by Earth's horizon and the blackness of space, the ISS appears to be very small as Endeavour departs from the station. Endeavour's vertical stabilizer and orbital manoeuvring system are seen in the ‘foreground’. I have modified the original NASA shot considerably by altering the positions to fit the widescreen format and refining the horizon line on the planet. Colour and contrast have both been ramped up as well as extra detail been restored back into the bleached out and blurred station. Software used, as usual, is Adobe CS3, Noise Ninja and DFT 55mm filters.

It’s the little details I like in shots like this – like the planet in the upper left area – there is what appears to be either a jet vapour trail or wake in the ocean visible below the clouds.

Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.
