in brief, I like it, I wish the foreground would have some more detail since the sky is so dramatic, cinematic, and enthralling.. detailed grass up front would create a cool impression of laying flat on your back.. looking to the clouds..

this isn't ready to sink from the board yet imo, so bump

[ed] is that grass, or water? I'm looking at it again and there's a shape that seems to be a ship on very choppy seas.. perhaps I'm seeing something that isn't there.. but the ambiguity itself needs to be resolved nehow I guess [/ed]

hmmm i think the mood is very intriguing however it really needs some sense of scale...i can't really tell exactly wut the stuff on teh ground is, but i think havin ga person looking up or somethign woudl contribute a lot to the atmosphere...as it is, it's a little vague...

I'm still getting used to the tablet..it's only a graphire..good, but small! and my dumbass did'nt figure out about changing the tool settings to stylus! i'll post again after i fix it...sorry about the bluriness-i compressed in Fireworks and it allows sections of an image to be compressed differently..so that may account for the unclear parts..thanks all

Soften the shadow on the moon, and give us a sense of scale. Put something in the pic that people have a general sense of size relation to. I think it will work much better then.

I would see this image more as a kick ass background than a "stand alone" peice, if u see what I mean. You counld add people/action or anything else u wish to make this pic more complete.

Also the green/bleu grass or water(whatever it is) in foreground could have more detail or be less blury. "Blurryness" is not just about compression, I think the original is too blurry.

Personnaly, I like it, but I don't consider it finish at this point. It got way more potential than what I see here, keep working on it!
