Description I've been working on this since Nov 17.  I'm at a point now where I think it'd be better to focus on having fun making artwork than worrying about framing and having it prevent me from enjoy doing so.  I need to relearn the skills that allowed me to do this stuff in the first place ... more curiosity and experimentation, less doing things that are "safe," and more having fun.

There's been a large project going on at work, so I've not had as much creative energy to work on making fractals at the end of the day.  Hopefully, as that is wrapping up, I'll be able to make things much more frequently

Anyway, I spent forever trying to make a nebula, and while I'm not happy with how the corners flow, I love how the overall shape of this looks.  I hope y'all enjoy it as well!

Always dreamed of getting out into space and experiencing sights like this. Seeing and contemplating just brings a gorgeous energy to life for me. Thank you!

Thank you!  As much as I'd love to see them in person, I have to be content in creating those sights through artwork.  Usually that's enough to get my mind spinning, especially when creating these spacescapes moves the clouds and stars around in really cool ways.  I wish I could share that part of my artwork more readily...

Very nice work. Actually, you stole this from Hubble, didn't you?

looks so authentic! and it's so vivid, so full of motion... as if the universe was during a chain reaction

Thank you  Well, the birth of a star is vivid, full of motion, and a massive chain reaction

It's interesting how those smiley faces show up in my outdated version of firefox but not my new version of chrome. XD

This is absolutely incredible, and I like how it seems to replicate a phenomenon called gravitational lensing. Interesting.

ChaosFissure In reply to Katakikun [2014-12-07 17:43:05 +0000 UTC]

I didn't consider that when making this, but I do notice it now that you pointed it out.  That has very much to do with the behavior of certain fractal transformations used on this...I was focused on just trying to frame it, and the whole lensed appearance was part of utilizing the canvas in a way that hopefully could show off the fractal as a whole in an appealing way.

Well, it works well within the piece. I have a very limited understanding of how fractals work but I find them very interesting and the fact that they have shaped this in this manner is quite a curious fact. I genuinely love how my eye is taken around the piece in a circular manner.

This is really amazing in it's depth, color usage, and composition! It works!

Thank you  I always like coming up with color combinations and making the fractal itself, but the nightmarish part is actually putting it into a rectangular image in an interesting way XD

I think you went to the desert and took a photo using some modern telescope! congrats!

yes, this is very real... we're seeing without a telescope

Marvelous! (I'm trying to create a spiral galaxy time to time since 2008.) I have failed before myself many times, but learned a lot for my better self. Keep up the good work, this nebula is really spectacular!!! I wish I had such like this in my spiral galaxy "project".

Thank you  I like how the darkness works, and really love the shape of the "nebula" itself, but I just wish that the fractal was easier to shape in a manageable way..

*stares*

*explodes*

This is beyond magnificent. I don't have enough synonyms for it! Truly, you have made a fractal of wonder.

I thought you said *stars* *explodes* and was about to say "yuuuup!"  But the framing of this beat me up, and I'm still hiding from it :3
