Mr Spock, she's about to blow apart, she can't take much more! Love your pp work here Beetle, so different for you. Did you get this for your birthday? A nice toy for you! Wonderful work on this. Nice to know both images are yours and not some CG imitation! Good job!

Hi Brian,
Its pretty perfect to me. I really like what you did hear. The HDR on the ship is great and brought out the colors most beautifully. I am particular keen on your space. The ice certainly does look like a galaxy and has a kind of depth to it.
Maybe next time you could use a mask and paint with a brush instead of using the eraser tool. This allows for much easier corrections and fine tuning.
TFS,
Niek

Haha nice experiment - I love the innovation you've shown to achieve this effect, and not an unreasonable one either!

'Sad old man'? Let's not forget that Star Trek has influenced much in our life, from being the seed of ideas that were turned into real technologies, to challenging the norms of its time - what other American TV show dared to cast a black woman, a Japanese man, and a Russian who was not a bad guy!

A nice tribute to the Enterprise!

Hi Brian,

Nice to see you are putting the new ball head to good use, BUT I am still sending the white coats round. Nice idea it works very well, really good idea with the frozen pond, I think the bottom line is if you are a bloke and were not into star trek their was something very wrong.

The original Star Trek :) love it.. apart from the intense 'galaxy' in the background, it is excellent, reducing the number of stars would have emphasized the starship better.. thanks

Excellent go at PP Brian - although the galaxy behind looks as if 'she cannae take it' and is breaking up :-) All part of the effectiveness!!

Nice use of the layers and more accurate work with the eraser than I can manage..

Good idea...... Man I love Star Trek Original, Next Generation but not Voyager...
