Description
Another boat load of apo flames, simmered in PSP for a few days.
I am so far behind what with camping, and life intruding. Doing hospital runs to see my bil (oops .. brother in law) and the death of a friend. I will catch up though, over the next week, slowly but surely!
So I got in my stash again and found this .. the long way home. A strange little backwater of planet, east of Maj'ai, which is somewhere in the area of Scorpius. There is an electrical storm that seems to be continuous, just moving from one area to another. Here it has hit one of many large rock formation on this rather arid little planet.
I had such fun reading all your wonderful and often funny comments on the previous post, I'm just so happy you all stopped to look and leave your thoughts. Thank you for the faves on it also! Such an affirmation!

OUT standing!!! I see that you save lots of bits and pieces...a good lesson for me. I love this! Great stars in the sky, love the planet surface in the foreground, the rocks, the planets, the lightening...it's all so amazingly put together! BTW, glad you're back and I'm so sorry to hear of your loss and the illness of your bil. You're a good sil!
I think you will need to be very careful exploring here as that looks like a bear trap there just waiting for someone to fall into it. Its the bit camoflaged by the green palm fronds so be careful. Actually that could be a bear already in there. A lovely fractal scene and that is very realistic lightning.
A really super composition. So sorry to hear of the loss of your friend. God bless you all.
Awesome image. I love to watch lightning storms.
Very cool and CREATIVE!
I... that does it arrive to me does not understand any more? I do not recognize any more my small thatched cottage with the edge of the corn field. I do not see any more the Moon in this tormented sky! Why this grove be was transformed into stone trees? For what the ground is it like the bottom of an empty basin? Arid and without flowers... in which world am I? Which nightmare lives me??? With the assistance!!! With the assistance!!! (it is always a shame to lose a friend!) )
Seriously creative! That is definately a fantastic sci-fi image! I am sorry to hear of your B-I-L and your friend. I hope he gets better and my sympathy for your friends family.

So sorry about the stresses you are facing but perhaps the camping is a calming time with your pups. Love your creativity, the way you put so many flames together to make a real image. Love how they 'stewed' in PSP, like good food brewing..yum :)
