A Couple of New Planets

Looking through my lens, I found these planets.

very cool!! that top one would make a good puzzle.

Cool!  So how did you do it?

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THESE ARE SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO COOOOOOOOOOL!

*wipes away drool*

I'm googling my little heart out and not finding anything that will make anything like what you did! *flail*

You're such a tease!!! Tell me now!!!

Alright Mike, these are dang near perfect, so I am going to nit pick a touch, but just a touch 
When doing this I might clone a bit where the seam is.  On the first one I can see the pano image meets at the bottom.  I think with a little cloning work you could blend that right up.

Seriously, these are amazing.  They would look cool with a city skyline, unfortunately I can't try that, my city doesn't have a skyline due to the mountains... well I guess that would make for a cool shot anyway.  If I get time someday I'll give it a whirl.

Oh, now you've created a monster!!!! Whooooooooooooo what fun!!!

Nice!

Mike, it'll be all your fault if I don't see my husband for the next couple of days!
