this one is on godali. the plants have a red pigment here because the star is a pretty weak star (G8 class) whose dominant wavelength is red instead of green.
this one is supposed to be autumn on notasami; this star is G0 class; closer to the sun, but it skews slightly toward blue so deciduous trees switch to a blue pigment instead of a yellow one as winter approaches.
full disclosure i 1. am not superly duperly interested in plant pigmentation biology but this should be close enough to realistic for my liking, 2. these were both the result of me following bob ross tutorials but on a computer and with a mouse. my first and 2nd times ever doing so in fact. i don't remember which episodes specifically though, sorry. i think i did quite well they came out quite nice
i would like to make more images like these but they'd have to be for new planets i come up with who have sufficiently wacky star-biology interaction or if i can show or add something else interesting.
Wow, I never even realized or considered that tree leaves turn yellow/red/orange due to shifting wavelengths across the season??
