The blue planet. Probably the most beautiful of all. But we rage war, destroy the rainforrest, which is the natural habitat to an uncounted number of plants and animals, and pollute the air we breathe. The climate is changing. Natural Catastrophies are happening more often and more powerfully. Ice from the south and northpole is melting, pooring more and more fresh water into the ocean every day, which endangers the golfstream of dwingling. Ice age.

Next one up. Been working on this one for the past three or four days. I wanted to show earth in an unusual way. So here you are looking at it from above northern europe and greenland. to the top you can see afrika, to the bottom right north america disappears in the shadow and to the left you can make out india and asia. To get this perspective i had to sphere the textures in a 3d program (i used blender). Atmosphere, shadow, starfield and all the details are photoshop though.

And yes i know that no explosion is as huge as that, pollution doesn't reach out into space, greenland has no great lakes and even the big hurricanes may be smaller.

I hope you like it.

Comments are most welcome :).

A picture used to speak a thousand words. People have changed, now a picture has infinite meaning, it can spark a thousand different thoughts in millions of people...

I am still learning Blender but how do you edit your picture using photoshop? This is a beautiful piece! It delivers a very powerful message so don't be worried about anything being "overdone". It goes great with the message.
wow. I liked a lot mate :) Very realistic! But I think that the typography could be better!

Nice explosion! And I also like the not distracticting but yet beatiful bg. No sure about the smoke coming out of the planet but the rest is cool!
