Kepler 47 c. The planet (the barely visible crescent at the right) is a Neptune-sized gas giant orbiting within the habitable zone of a sun-like star. The star is a binary; its red dwarf companion is visible to its right. It's possible that Kepler 47 c might have a Mars-sized moon, which is what is depicted here.

The Sky and everything in it is GREAT! The water is working very nicely too!
But the foreground terrain is leaving me a little disappointed.
This is just my personal feeling and should not be taken as anything more. But as I viewed it my eyes first went to the foreground where I got my balance as a viewer, then up to the shy were I became very impressed, then down to the water that gave me my impression of the scale, which returned my eye to the foreground where all the air went out on me. The image has a good composition and everything, good control of the viewers eye. But the terrain details in the foreground need more.
Just my thought, but a blackish reflective surface with the texture of lava rock would be gorgeous here.
Nice image over all.
Its nice to see an artist impression on exo-planet discoveries. I've made some of my own impressions over the last year with mixed results. This one is very nice. :)
Perhaps tilt the camera upwards, so you see less of the foreground, since its hard to create a detailed and convincing planet surface. Worked for me in the past.
Great job. Really like this one. Keep em coming!
Excellent work here. It is hard to please all since we have different tastes. This composition works beautifully.
