Description
A little system has since the dawn of times been drifting farther and farther away from its parent galaxy. Soon it will be completely desolate...I made a few galaxies with a simple technique here, and I'm pretty pleased, since they essentially are my first ones. I'm starting to really appreciate the power of light factory, the only plugin I actually use in ps. Made a few pr3t3nd3r-inspired stars, which I think look pretty cool. I've been a little sluggish regarding the star field, might revisit that and improve it later.
(And that flare on the big planet, that's the peeking sun if such a concept would be hard to comprehend).
Original resolution: 9400^2 px.
EDIT: I finally did the improvements I promised in the comment section. Way better star field, better space dust, and updated the planets.
I also thank for giving me my second DD on this picture!
EDIT (2010-12-21): Made som smaller changes.

Yes, this one is quite old, a few months ago I did sokme small updates, but I haven't bothered with it more. As it now got a DD, I might improve it seriously which I considered doing (if you read the odelr comments).

So wait, the flare on the planet is a star coming into view, or from the giant light from the center of the galaxy(which isn't a star)? Since you said sun, I'm guessing the former...
Regardless, 'effing breath taking image! You have amazing skills. Keep it up <3

The flare isn't in the center of the galaxy, is it? It's from the peeking sun, which I mention in the description. Thanks.
