The beauty of space, created by Rocksham

The beauty of space
final rank: 9 out of 71 (final score: 56.4 %)
for contest: space impressions

I unashamedly followed a tutorial from Advanced Photoshop Magazine. I changed a
few things but was so pleased with the result I thought I would enter to show
what can be achieved and learnt through following a good tutorial. I used 2
source photos the mountains and the strange fishy thing at the bottom of the
image, all the rest was created in Photoshop.
