Description
------EDIT------So sorry for spamming your inbox's with this piece of junk, but I have heard some constructive critique from *GTXCrusader and I am trying to improve it. Thank for putting up with me
-----END EDIT-----
I really must thank these lovely artists for letting me use their wonderful stock:
Planet Stock: `hameed [link]
Nebula Stock: ~ineedfire [link]
Mountain/River Stock: ~Momotte2stocks [link]
Go and check out their galleries - I command you!
I have had this on my computer for a while now, as a few weeks ago I had a photoshop assignment that required us to do a surreal image. I know this isn't very original but it was a milestone for me as I thought this was one of the best photomanipulations I've ever done. If you had seen my previous manipulations on my old account you'd know why I am so happy
Anyway, thanks for stopping by and viewing this...thing.
And again, go and check out the stock artist galleries - they are totally awesome people!

Looks awesome. About the only things I don't really like are the lightning (the land doesn't look right... it's too bright) and the way the planet/moon reflects in the water. It reflects good, but the land doesn't?
Other than that, this is a VERY good image. Nice work

Hey there buddy,
So sorry for not replying as soon as I got the comment, but I spent some more time on this trying to improve it.
Thanks for your constructive criticism, I always seem to notice the flaws as soon as I upload. I tried to listen to your criticism and improve, I hope I have
Thanks again !

The lighting still seems a bit off. A question to ask yourself, "Where's the light coming from, and how much of it is there?" With a darker setting like this, it seems like you are assuming that there may be a sun in the direction of the viewer (basically, in front of everything).
Maybe if you "move" that light, say to the left, and help create some shadows, it may create some more depth on the hills.
The reflections, however, look MUCH MUCH better. ^.^

Hmm, ok. I see what you mean.
I just added some shadows to the picture, and you are right, with the lighting moved to another position it does look a lot better.
I'm re-uploading the new one now

I like. I'm confused as to what's creating a shadow on that right hill now, but that shading does provide a MUCH better view of depth. Well done ^.^

Well, if you look very closely in the top left hand corner you can probably see a very faint lens flare type...thing.
I wanted to create a sun or something like that but there wasn't enough room on the Photoshop canvas so in other words what I'm trying to say is that there is a sun just beyond the picture
...If you get what I mean
