Great ! The symbolic for the game is beautiful
Not even the best part, it's in a Black hole system with 4 Neutron stars...

Very nice, how did you get that out of focus effect on the station?
Probably DoF.
DoF in game does not work at all for me, I was sure I have it off, then I looked and it is on High, so I'm not sure what it is suppose to do, need to chase it up.
The effect is postprocessing in graphic software, maybe 15 minutes of it. Takes time, but if I would be there with my camera, thats what it would look like, so I think it is worth my time
Original (bottom part of the station is like fogged, maybe that is DoF setting in game?)

Paint is getting a bit of wear & tear, guess it must all those pesky neutrons.

For what it's worth, I think the effect wouldn't be there in camera in real life. If these were "miniature" models, yes. For the real life sizes and distances of these capital ships and stations however, any practical combination of camera, lens focal length, aperture, and subject distance needed to shoot them would give an infinite DoF behind the subject (the capital ship), so the station in the background would always be in focus. (I did some calculations on a variety of combos to confirm this.) It's pretty much "landscape photography" due to the scale. That's what would make these things so fascinating to photograph in real life: there would be so much detail in everything to see because it would all be in focus!
Situation would be different if it were a *closeup* of a small part of the capital ship (or framing a small ship like a Sidewinder). Then you'd probably get the DoF bokeh in the background if the station is not extremely close. The key element is that the distance to the subject would be much much smaller than if you were framing an entire capital ship.
Either way, interesting effect!
I've also wondered what the ingame DOF actually do.

I love this screenie! Progressive Solitude with cosmic magnificence.
Neutrons surprisingly difficult to pull away from, must be the gravitational pull.
Paint is getting worse by the lightyear.

Rather happy about this one, found a couple volcanism but for the first time I found them on my favorite planet type - Rocky Ice!
Lined up like some fancy entrence with fireworks, they even started pouring out water at pretty much the same time, very synchronus work
