Tiny Planet Hong Kong

I’ve seen #tinyplanet images before, but I had never tried to make one from one of my photos. Last week though, I saw that Hive account@r00sj3 was hosting a #tinyplanetcontest, so I figured I could give it a shot. She linked to a few “how to” tutorials in her original post, but I ended up following the simple steps shown here to turn one of my shots of Hong Kong harbor into a cloudy, watery, tiny planet with a pretty impressive skyline.

For reference, you can see my original shot of the harbor below.

If you are interested in participating, there is still a little time (the contest ends tomorrow at 8pm CET). See Hive account@r00sj3’s post for more info.
