This is a bit older piece that is a part of ~Space-Artists pack called .:Hidden from the Sun:. . You can find the presentation here: [link]
The presentation is a bit difficult to observe without problems, so you can see at least a bit of it before it's repaired.

The concept is to show you what is hidden from us because of the light that is emanated by every sun. This particular planet orbits a star somewhere on the edge of an unknown galaxy (it's a concept, not a theory or fact - I put the main stress on colors, as usuall - you know me ). The point is that usually we would see just the main star (sun) and probably a few closest/brightest stars around (just like our night/day sky). Here we can see the whole galaxy uncovered from the dark matter.
Well - I do this pretty often - you can see nebulae next to planets, stars and galaxies in many of my pieces.
So, nothing new under my Sun - nevertheless - enjoy it.
