That's incredible, but how was it done, and what is it?

Looks like a lump of turd served on a CD disc!

Clever stuff but methinks too clever for its own good.

Im going to go against the grain here...

I haven't got a clue what it is, what it represents and its message. To me if I have to google it to find out what it is or how it was created to understand the image, its fighting a loosing battle as a good photo for me. I appreciate some will know how it was created, because they know what went into it, but for me it looks like a CGI mish mash.

Like robin said, too clever for its own good??

I think what confuses people is the "earth". It's meant to be a panoramic view over 24 hours:

FWIW I'm gonna go ahead and call it art.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Technically it's great and the subject is very original, but this photo proves that a really great shot has to have something more. It's interesting but it doesn't satisfy. Photographers will appreciate it but I think it's illustrating the technology rather than the skill of the guy behind the lens.
 
I can see it as Art but it still doesn't appeal to me.

I would expect a slightly more open minded opinion from you robin. :-/

Calm down Tiger. What I don't get is why you would all of a sudden say I need to take a picture lasting 24hours that's all.
