Description
Where:Studio/office – Chino Hills, CA USA
When: 3-8-2016
Who/What: The represented asteroid is my studio photograph of an actual (3" long) meteorite, and I added impact craters with PhotoShop to simulate a larger scaled-up asteroid. Disintegration and atmospheric burn up created in PhotoShop.The background is my high altitude aerial photograph with a wide angle lens to accentuate the curvature of the Earth's horizon. The sky area was darkened, and my PhotoShop multi-layered time-exposure photographs of stars added to simulate outer space.
