Ouch! That lens flare hurts! Otherwise not a bad image. What's the source for the figures on top of the cliff?

i think its fine dark... its night time with no lights really... its supposed to be dark. i wouldnt lighten it up any more... if you must go that route in one way or another, instead bring out more details at the focal points to make them more pronounced, and bring in a little more detail in the darker parts to keep it balanced.

Lovely image and great concept ... I agree it is a little dark but only a little ... I have seen a night sky where the stars stand out against a "void" when there is something that you cannot quite make out in front of them. I think a little lightening and some minor toning down of the sparkles would enhance the image .

To lighten you can apply a Levels adjustment layer and brighten it up so the image is "too" light ... then mask out what you don't want to lighten and set opacity to get it just right ...that is if you want to

EDIT: Better!

The idea is good, however the image is very dark. Its almost like the saturation and contrast are making this image darker.
With the couple in the foreground, if you took a bit of the sparkles around them off, then they would be a little bit more clearer as well, the you may not need to lighten the image too much more

Goodluck anyway author

Too dark. Half of your image is so dark, it's very hard to see what is going on, or what you are trying to communicate. Particularly the RH side. The building looks like a facade, with no real back to it, the stars seem to jam right up against the lit front, with the remaining blackness on the right just "dead space."
The figures are almost impossible to make out as a couple, the light swirl is too dominant.

Beautiful concept, just too "moody," with not enough consistent illumination for the viewer to clearly appreciate your efforts.

I like this kind of work a lot. Maybe something more can be happening in the dark part of the image, it is night after all and then the most creepy things can appear...

Nice glowing, but the sparkles are a brush? You could do them as small letters instead, would really keep the theme right on. Realize it might be a enormus job to change, but I recommend it. Feeling the rythm though

Very nice! You might wanna make the girl cutout a little better, since it's gonna be easy with the blue background. Good Luck !!

Lovely concept ... a wee suggestion that I think would help; have the waterfalls thin out at the bottom so they don't end as abruptly ... that would give the whole image a more realistic look. A tiny bit of clean up on the tail of the foreground bird.

Great image though really like the whole feel of it!

have to agree, if you look at the texture of the book and the aged look and then look at the skull and hand.... the skull and hand look rather neat, new and very smooth... hope that makes sense I do like your idea though author so will hold my vote

Bad idea...
avatar DanLundberg

If the front of the applecoptor is 6 o'clock, I would expect the tail to be at 12 o'clock, but instead it's at 10 o'clock. In hi-res, you can see a light-colored outline around the rotor and landing strut that ideally should be removed.

this is really great author.. but it really needs an SBS so we can see how you made it (especially to make it into a Tutorial.. it would be awesome) this also gives you higher votes..

Lovely image all round and right on theme!!!

(maybe a nice airport background to complete the scene.. it really does deserve it.. ) hehehe.. good luck

That's a hot idea! Er... cold idea...
But I agree with iquraishi and lvstealth about the drip shadow; about the stick, you can add a shadow casting from the finger (or mask the finger behind the stick, with a shadow from the stick - whatever...)

lvstealth says:

the ice cream (my favorite thing besides hockey!!) seems to be to the front of the hand (the drips and palm show it) but the stick is behind the fingers, it doesnt seem quite right. agree about the drip. the light seems to be from the top left for the hand and the right for the ice cream. good luck author! i love ice cream!

Is there a source for the shadow? You'll have to make an SBS (step by step) if you didn't use any other sources. Mods will remove it if you don't.
