Description
A planet has the misfortune of being in the path of an aging star as it begins to shed its outer layers. If it survives this firestorm, when the becomes a white dwarf, it won't last much longer.

This was entirely made in Photoshop. It wasn't intended to end up like this, but one thing led to another and, well you can see the result. The stars in the far background are from the plugin "Glitterato", the planet started out from the plugin "Lunarcell" but was altered considerably from there. The nebula is a mix of filters and photos of clouds (the only actual photographic elements in this)
Thanks for taking a look, and comments are of course welcome.
