That is also one of my favorites. Surprising how similar it is with the 
3th place entry 'Dissolution'. Practically the same composition, both 
unrealistic worlds, both perfectly executed, only the first has a 
technical theme and the second a magical one.

If you put them side by side, I think, both images compliment each other 
in that respect, like the alter ego of each another.
