My GIMP Space Art

[Wallace]

I put together this montage using some of my most recent "space art" images.
These images were all created to be used as my own desktop wallpaper.
Most of the images within the montage are 3840 x 1080.
G'MIC was also used to help create the montage.

Wonderful! What espectacular images. Wallace, you mastery this theme.

Awesome work, Wallace! Although none of us have been to space, I love what your imagination to portrait the space and planets.

Wallace - very powerful desktop imagery; well done.

[Wallace]

Thank you everyone!



I enjoyed creating the images and I'm happy you guys enjoyed them too.
I'm not sure what prompted this artistic streak,
but I'll take it any way I can.


Here's one of the images in it's full size.

Quite nice. Your desktops would look really good I'm guessing

Yes, I like it a lot, I'm born too early, I should have been born 500 years from now, I love space, you did a great job, big-big thumb up

Yes Sallyanne, I think so.

The photo is a bit grainy. Due to the use of an old point and shoot camera.
It's a modest setup that has become a bit cluttered as of late,
but it works for me.

I also sometimes feel the same way about myself.

Thanks for the big-big thumbs up!

Thank you Pocholo!

I often wonder why I imagine such things.
I guess it's because I can.

I'm a space nut too. Here's a shot (hand held) of the moon I took with my telephoto lens.

Nice abstract space art. I originally read this title thinking about the former famous social media website MySpace

Keep up the good work!

Thanks contrast!
Didn't think about that.

I've change it to "My GIMP Space Art" instead.

Very nice results.
I used the Racer-X moon photo to add the jagged (crease) edge option in the P&M Cosmos Ver.2.0 plugin
