People aren't going to remember the things you do. They're going to remember how you made people feel. Be kind, gracious, and appreciative. Dan Winters - Photographer.
My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
Beautiful picture. I didn't realize it was a rendering until I noticed the moon. The moon should be dark on the opposite side of the sun. This does not detract from the beauty of the whole thing.
Thank you both very much. Glad you liked the picture.
In my defense, I did put a light to dark gradient on the moon, it's just not very strong. Put the brightness down to 'Earthlight' reflecting back on the moon. It's a real effect though.
I had no idea this was a computer landscape. It looked very realistic except as noted above when I saw the moon. You've created a magnificent landscape here and a universe that I wouldn't mind seeing again and again. Stupendous work.
