Welcome to TG Pixel,

A very stunning image indeed. I particularly like the lens flare effect. Please post some more of your work.

Good first post, look forward to more.

Yep keep em coming and lets see how that one develops

Really nice work, but please, place the planet in other place. Little higher for example. Stars probably should have different luminocity.
Planet itself and flare are excelent.

so it's time to develop it

well
i discovered my stars had outline 0pt
so they were rendered as bricks

please, place the planet in other place. Little higher for example

but it will destroy my scene
the idea (and the real name of this work) is lonelyplanet so it has to be on boundary - that's why it's not in the center of the picture (i know it's not balanced but it's planed)

Stars probably should have different luminocity.
Planet itself and flare are excelent.

so i fixed the bug with the outline and i added starfield shadder layer to vary luminocity and temperature of the stars
additionaly i moved halo layer to the front of the planet
i think now it's more realistic and it shines even more now
another change is the order of the ghost layer and starfield shadder layer
so the space became more colorfull (there is red color added) - i think it's not good
