It’s not finishing something when your tank is empty that makes you a stronger person. It’s brushing yourself off and refacing the foe that defeated you with the same determination and willingness to fight that you had when you began your journey.

How would a moon get that close to a planet? Is it possible? I suppose if it was that close it's orbit would have to be pretty fast... so the tides would come and go like predictable flash floods.
Or maybe the picture is taken from a moon of that planet that we see in the sky? It might be really small so that it can orbit very closely without generating a lot of wobble or deformities in the host planet. Still though that other object in the sky is either very close to that large planet or it is in fact the far off gas giant that is the host plant for both of the other moons... In that case the viewer would have to be on a moon of a moon of the gas giant. That would yeild one unusual calander:)
Basically I'm rambling... Question: How can such large masses orbit eachother at close range? Mutual orbits? Moons of Moons? Something in between? It seems to be a mess that would have to be very precisely balanced to prevent calapse...
The Art bit (finally): I like the way the guys is flatly sillouetted. It fits with the open spacous feeling instead of contrasting it with tiny details.
I like the rambling because I am an astronomy major (in the making) so I know where your going. On the other hand I love this type of art specifically for the fantasy. It is just amazing to look at...... I never try to question it. Doing so seems to detract from it somehow....
