Reminds me of a black hole and was going to make a space render with this being part of a black hole, but then I got lazy and kept it a photo edit. lol

I like your version!
As I ran completely out of my hearts quota I type a message.
Did not know that even to be possible…
This is a quicky attempt at my machinations, jetze. Crude (i.e., more work needs to be done). The water had to be separated from the clouds and then blended as so to create the background starfield for the zoomed in black hole.

My God, what a beautiful photo!. Edited with Ansel. I must say it was very easy. It’s an “almost” perfect shot.
Congratulations.

I fear, it’s not really the almost perfect shot. It was simply the perfect moment. What should have gone wrong with such a scenery?

Nothing. But you were there, prepared and ready for the shot.
Cheers.
