Atmosphere

The atmosphere of a planet is a complex and multi-layered matter. It provides the oxygen to breathe, the ozone layer that protects us from the hard ultraviolet radiation, transports essential humidity in its clouds and conjures up the most wonderful colors and cloud formations in the sky. Now, with CyberMotion you can catch some of this enormous variety for your picture compositions. Choose the "Atmosphere" entry in the background select box and the seven sets of parameters for the creation of an atmosphere will step to the fore. All effects can be freely combined or switched off, just as you like. For instance, if you choose to add the starfield to a cloudy atmosphere, it will be automatically filtered by the clouds and the fog. But if only the starfield is activated, without clouds and fog, then you can use it as a background for scenes in outer space.
