Are we ever satisfied with our work? Its what keeps us doggin' it & improving. Love it, Mark! ")

Looking good Mark. For me, I would reduce the size of the planet. The title says 'Markers' - they are the center of attraction - so, they should be larger and the planet smaller. I cannot say I was ever truly satisfied with my own image. I often look at photographs and find many that are appealing; without any criticism. So, from there, I'll try something similar and usually fail to feel good about it. This is why lately, my images take a few weeks to develop.

suggestions??? go color... red rusty ground with yellow oar streaks... the gas is spewing from vents and has a green mist to it = paint some rainbow gas fumes into it. Make the background black, with a blackhole - sucking the planet into it.... hell, I don't see why you just don't make another picture - lol

Superb.

I like the desaturated colur in this one...great lighting and details...I like it just as is!

I like that picture a lot, especially those three mountains "markets" I would crop it more from above - the asteroid line sort of divides the picture in two halves and top half feels overwhelmingly big.

I would add a little more colour. The small moon with the blue back lighting really stands out, because of the narrow band of colour used in the rest of the image.

Fantastic image and lighting. Corrie

Well, this image is really nice as it is. The composition is good (imho) the is a good sense of vastness, The desaturated colors give a feeling of an arid world. This image could give a completely different feeling just by spreading the color spectrum ... but it wouldn't be necessary a better image. It's just a matter of what you want to 'tell in your story'. Superb work anyway.

Une terre aride qui fait peur, superbement bien réalisé!

looks great, fantastic sci-fi image, I like the planet in the background with the rock rings

Excellent Mood!!!

Wow, that looks great!

IMHO, the image is very well done. The ground mist is a good touch. Without it, I think the image would seem desolate and static. With the mist, there is a brief sense that something subtle is taking place on the surface. The viewer could imagine any number of reasons for that...

Sehr schön.

Beautiful spacescape Markal, very fine artwork!

Very nice sci-fi image Mark.

I like this, but as a suggestion I think the spires should be the last part of the terrain before the planets. I am unsure it that is attainable, because I don't know this terrain, but the colors the spacial part are quite nice and I like the planets and thin rings. Very Nice Job!!! Oh, and I hope you guys get rid of that nasty Nutt job you having at Ole Miss. I went to high school with the boy and Nutt is an Appropriate name!!!!!

I like the subdued colors and debris ring. Almost looks as if the large planet could sit on those peaks.

Damn near perfect, this is. Most of us would be proud of it as a finished product. As the old saying goes: "The more I fix it, the broker it gets." I say leave it alone and move on to the next project. Gets a 5 from me, in any case.

Good comments here so I'll just say it is spectacular as always from you. Let yourself enjoy it--at least a little bit. ;')

Excellent space image!!!

Hey there!! Long time! Still producing pictures that make you look twice I see. I really love this. The sublte tones in the planet in the bkg are terrific and I'm in love the with the meteor belt, the terrain suits the mood that's for sure. The only thing I could suggest for improving this image (which is totally fine the way it is) is some foreground interest like a lump of space junk or something alien but really that's a personal thing and just a suggession.... Great to see you here..

Out of this world Mark !!! Truly !

Fantastic image!

Klasse TG2 Arbeit.

My only suggestion would be to ask Corleonis for one of his planets to put in the sky :P haha ....seriously I like it a lot, this one has a nice interesting composition, not to mention some hi quality TG work

Love the terrain Mark, although not sure with the atmosphere, it might be the low lying foggy stuff...otherwise spot on... maybe a punch of color :) Some of that blue you do so well.

Awesome work!
