In "Touched by eternity", the lens flare is too distracting. Could you maybe use a less prominent one? It'd look good with a lens flare, just not such a bright, gaudy one.

The other pics are great.

I like the Beauty and the Beast one.

And Touched By Eternity would be -really- nice if you removed the lens flare altogether, and changed the "Enchantment" font to something a little less fancy. I really like the background, but it's too overwhelmed by the needless flashy stuff.

Just IMO.

iByrn, thank you. I decreased a little bit the lens flare's layer opacity a bit. how is that now?

Better. I still think the big rainbow ring at the tip of the mountain could be quieter.

[edit] On second thought, nah. It looks good the way it is.

I'm just gonna say that I completly agree with Sumaleth. And that's why I"m going to repeat it ...
The beauty and the beast is really nice my favorite too. I also like the simplicity(I don't know if this term fits exactly) of the surfer picture. In the "Tuched by eternity" I would also like to see the glare removed and the text simplified. It looks .. well . amateurish the way it is now. You know what I mean right, it's one just started using the program and wants to put all the bells and whistles to work ...
anyways ... otherwise they look nce ... nice mood...
