You need to upgrade your Flash Player The theme of this blog is not only and obviously space, but in particular “terrestrial worlds”, places that tend to have surfaces on which one could walk or at least attach oneself to. These places sometimes also have other earth-like familiar features such as atmospheres, weather, volcanos, geysers and perhaps, we are finding, even exotic oceans, rivers or lakes that are not necessarily made of familiar materials we are used to here at home. The second theme is imagery. Occasionally I do some retouching of images when needed if an image is incomplete or sometimes “dirty” or noisy. I will attempt to correct image shortcomings based upon other images or well-accepted presumed attributes. When this is done, notes will be offered as to what was added, why and sometimes how it was done. This way no one should ever wonder if something they are looking at is real or photoshop.

A Graphic Rendering of Saturn

I have two really… the more detailed one is a bit photographic and i’m wondering if that is “better”? I mean, we already have photos so what’s the point? I am trying to make a nicely designed poster so should I go with the simpler (and therefore) more graphic version???

Less details:

More details:

At this size you really barely see the details. Click on for larger version of each.

By the way, the rings look really different because they are supposed to look back lit in this illustration.

    You left a comment on my blog expressing surprise (i think) that I link to you. I added you to the Space Blogroll a while back, so any blog that displays the Space Blogroll (such as mine) also links you you. I also added your feed to the Space Feeds website a while back, so the titles of each of your posts ends up there as well.
