I really like this but I am not sure if I like the stained glass. It is technically well added but I keep coming back and looking at it because I just can't decide what I don't like about it. I think it distracts from the rest of the image. And, although I know rules are made to be broken ... it is not a great placement for the overall composition; pulls the eye away from the image???

Love the rest ... it has a very mysterious feel to it with the shadows!

Thank you very much for your comment Arca, at least you bothered to look at it - several times even. I know perfectly well what you mean by the glass distracting the picture, but for me it adds something which I wanted to bring into the picture. I'm glad you like the lightning and shadows.

No problem ... it was a personal thing ... not a real critique on the work ... that is why I kept coming back to it ...and I still can't say that I don't like it??? It did not effect my vote either way though
