Cool photo, Lem! How did you create this?

This is actually an orange five gallon paint bucket with leaves at the bottom and an ivy vine that wandered into it. I forgot to record the exposure, but I rested the camera above the bucket and shot at f8.0 with a slow shutter speed. In Photoshop I applied a skylight filter throttled down to 20mm, creating the circular effect and masking the top rim of the bucket. I placed a cloned stamped circle near the top right, and lightened it. I blurred the background to create the cloudlike effects. Then I applied Sabres Modula Painter in the red and green spectrums creating the ringed effect in the background and the contours in the circle. The satellite near the moon is really a paint glop. Further blurring reduced the sharpness of the rings. #67953
