I like the nebula, difference clouds filter used to create lighter "forks" in them? In any case, nice one. Not sure about the green and pink colour composition, but each to their own.

Actually it was difference clouds, guasoin blur, a slight radial blur and some airbrushing.

The green and pink tends to show up a lot in NASA photos of nebulae, so it doesn't seem too far off to me.

I love the clouds and the angle. I wish the stars had a little more depth, they seem kind of flatish. But the nebula more than makes up for it, you really did an awesome job with it.

Certainly nebulas come in all sorts of striking combinations, my comments are of personal taste only, not of realism.
Patrick I didn't mean to make it sound as though there was simplicity in the difference clouds approach, merely that I recognised the style, as I used to use it for a different effect. Nebulas are never as easy as simply doing cloud renderings, at least not those as good as the ones displayed in your image.
