Description Yet another space scene...
Didn't spend too much effort on this one (mostly an excercise which is the reason to the low res of 4096^2px), but I think it came out ok. I like the reflections on the rings.

EDIT: Increased the visibility of the rings as qaz suggested.

Really liking the contrast/scenery and just overall lighting here. Clouds on the large planet are a little too exposed/embossed, though. Composition works well.

Very nice, lovely ring and lightning. The only remark I can come up with is that the planet clouds might be a bit over sharpened. Aside from that, great work.

Yeah, the sunlit side of the planet is a little oversharpened. Thanks for the faves.

Amazing..
I think the planet ring needs more brightness, don't you think

So beautiful! As always. The planet is so well made,
that the clouds. Have a shadow I can barely see, so well
detailed. Especially the stars, nebula, and the ring.
Lovely work!
