Description
Abstract photograph of a decorative glass object reflecting purple and blue colors on a space black background with the moon and earth layered in.
Have you ever wondered what an astronaut sees through their helmet? The original version of this picture struck me as something an astronaut might see alone in the vastness of outer space.
The original image started as a photograph of a round glass lampshade finial against a dark background and using an LED tealight for color effects. The colored light covered the entire final except for a small dark section in the center, which gave it space travel feel.
From there, the creative path evolved into adding the moon, earth and stars for a more
"life-like" feel. The moon is from a photo I shot through a telescope. The "earth" is an abstract photo I took of a flower vase and the stars are Christmas lights reflecting on a giant outdoor Christmas ornament!
