Morning Has Broken

The people on this planet are greeted every morning with the full light from this yellow galaxy which functions very well as a sun. I usually avoid a lot of yellow in my work, but this image is both beautiful and subtle. It also gives me a sense of the immense size of galaxies as well as their symmetry. Although most of the pictures of galaxies make them appear flat, they are actually three-dimensional objects, a feature I tried to bring out in this photo manipulation.
