Things like this confuse me in what category to put it, 2d or photo?

i would put them under both to be safe
Wait this is a real photo? Amazing :D
Artistic'd
so you used the telescope at mount wilson to take this?
No way it's a picture...
Looks amazing.
Dude.. this is amazing.
This is amazing, I'd say it's neptune or something.
Very nice.
where the hell did you get a hooker telescope? the nearest planetarium?
nice pic tho. worth and artistic
The stars are real but the planet is not
Looks cool anyway
awesome

Your very close
So the planet is real and the stars are not?
Can I see the picture unmodified? Like before you edited it??
Also that is awesome.
I want to see what this looks like unmodified, but it's pretty great.

You should show us the picture without any modifying.
As an astronomer, I'm not sure what I'm looking at, I've never seen an extra-solar planet in that much detail. Actually it probably can't be extra-solar AND in that much detail, especially with a ground based telescope [atmospheric distortion]. It's got a dark side so obviously it doesn't produce light, and its orbiting something very bright. It's either a moon [titan?] or one of the 8 [9] planets. Am I close?
As an artist [well from an artist's point of view anyway] it looks really pretty.
This isn't going to come out the size i want cause of the forms so ill post a link to view it in the correct size. This is the original picture of the object without the resizing or colour change in the picture above. I must warn about the size however.

That is just amazing. Nothing more to say really.
That rivals most astronomy pictures that I've seen... and I check the astronomy picture of the day daily. You should e-mail to them or something.

Yeah, the best extrasolar picture taken shows a planet several times bigger than Jupiter, about a pixel across.
Also, the best ground based image of Jupiter ever taken looks like this:

This is obviously a photoshop, though the stars do look very real in the full size version. I'm guessing a real star exposure shot with a fake planet pasted on top, or a really good photoshop of a starfield with a fake planet pasted on top.
Either way, it looks pretty cool.
MY EYES, THEY BURN!!!!!!
Because of the awesomeness :v:
Well i have to give you all congratulations! Together you have all figured out the process.
So you didn't actually post the unedited vers
