Why this piece is awesome:
txduck makes gorgeous, painterly art out of screencaps and other sources with a technique featuring smudging and light effects that I have admired and envied for years. She frequently works at icon size, so her larger pieces are always a treat, and this one especially struck me. She blends the Sam and Jack from '2010' with a promo-image Stargate and a pastoral landscape of meadow/lake/hills, then works her magic on them to create a scene that wouldn't be out of place on the cover of a commercial romance novel. The way Sam is looking up at the gate and Jack is looking at Sam speaks volumes about both characters, the light on Sam's face is beautiful, and the artful three-tiered focus is really cool, from crisply rendered gate to dreamy-soft background with the just-right figures in between.
