This picture were produced using The GIMP
Magic wand was applied to several images of Sternberg Astronomical
Institute (look at original picture) and
environs of Moscow University, resulting "crops" were combined and multiplied
by the image of the Orion nebula, central part was whirled by 20 degrees.
I skipped some imtermediate steps as blurring, masking and shifting.
You may check Web-card I did for Sergey Blinnikov
when he was in Japan.
More pictures ....
Here is a backround I did for my desktop - it's
rather large (1280x1024) and "weight" about 115Kb ! I can't
