Through His Eyes

I ran cross a pretty nifty-sounding contest[1] today, to create an image from Einstein's famous E=mc2 equation written on a chalkboard.

You can see the image here: http://www.photoshoptalent.com/images/contests/einstein%20equation/fullsize/sourceimagesmall.jpg

The contest sounded pretty great, and the source image immediately inspired me to create my own entry.

I wondered what Einstein himself might have seen when looking at that chalkboard. Why not galaxies?

So, I was off on a hunt for public domain Hubble images of galaxies and came across a pretty awe-inspiring image of the M47 spiral galaxy: http://hubblesite.org/newscenter/archive/releases/2007/41/image/a/warn/

Some pixel hammering, chiseling, sawing, and sanding later, I had something I felt worthy to enter:

However, I decided not to enter it into the contest, because it was created with “the GIMP”[2] on Linux, not with Photoshop.
