Recently I've been a lot more interested in spacescapes and sciencey books and art, so here a couple examples. I love how in spacescapes the black color is more like liquid darkness, and everything else just pops out around it. The colors are by far my favorite aspect of any space scene. I don't think there's any picture from deep space telescopes that hasn't been vivid and bright, and most space artwork reflects that. The universe is very beautiful, but it makes me feel very small when I see works or even real photos like these.

  2. Those are seriously beautiful images. I'm wondering, have you ever seen this spray paint artist? I think you'd enjoy his stuff, its crazy... especially given his process. Check it out:
