Wonderful lighting.

Adjust shadows to light source...

CMYK...could you be a bit more specific? I really want to make this as good as it can get and I know you are a stickler for details!

I think what he means is with such a strong light coming from the top, the undersides of the steps etc would be very dark

Thanks RayTedwell for the suggestion. I have fixed the shadows and it looks better to me.
I am open to ANY and ALL suggestions for improvement. So my thanks to you and CMYK.

That does look better - good job with the burning . I would just darken the ceiling a bit too.

very nice and very well done

Beautiful!

great light source.

This image is all made of hope!

COOOOOOOONGRATS!!!!! Hehehe, excellent image!!

a definate chop... a definate idea... and a big "I hope the HELL SHE MAKES IT!!!!) the impending doom and the hope of everything coming out okay is hysterical.. good job author

EDIT: Sorry to annoy.. me again.. (I really look at pieces too much sometimes) I'm thinking how calm she looks.. and it makes me laugh even more..If I were in her situation I'd be pitching such a fit, I'd make the cows nervous (My arms would be out to the sides and I'd be Screaming to beat the band)..again kudo's..the humor of this piece really grows on ya

girl's shadow looks very natural.....cool

Love the image!! IMO the lighting isn't right..A little too bright because if it were going to heaven you would be higher than the sun Just my opinion...Good Luck

good idea, stars actually not required

wonderfull job original ,cute ,creative a lot of tecnic but in my humbel opinion i think u can improve star they are a bit too mutch uniform and they look a litle like snow, but this is sutch a nice piece maybe this small detail is not even important , good luck

wow

aww...what a cool idea (the lift's under maintenance again? lol..) Maybe add little cloud twirling around the stairs....and a little brighter inside heaven's door...light pouring out.

Nice entry, but maybe the edges are a bit too soft.. not sure here.. good luck anyway!

God, I hope she falls through the gap...I hate that song.

Maybe a touch more blur for the distance??

Maybe she's some kind of real estate agent looking over the property for the potential buyer. Hmmm, some missing steps here, ohhh, badly deteriorated railing, really nice view though.

Led Zepellin? Hm! Nice and neat image! GL!

Very well done author, best of luck

congrats on 4th...
